Substituting Shared Libraries

Sometimes while debugging, you need to use alternate versions of shared libraries. For example, the debuggee might be dynamically linked to shared libraries that have the same name as the shared libraries of the host OS, but that are built for the target OS, and reside in a different location than the host's libraries.

To substitute one shared library for another:

  1. Click Options > Shared Library Settings…
  2. Click the Add New… button. The New Shared Library Path Substitution Rule dialog box opens.
  3. Enter the path to be replaced into the Replace field.
  4. Enter the new path into the field by. Alternatively, you can click the Browse button to browse for a directory.
  5. Click OK. The old and the new source directories are displayed.
