calltrace.plugin

Default invocation

The invocation does look as follows:

metal.runner --lib=metal-calltrace test.exe

By default the plugin will output all the calltraces at initialization and deinitialization (including the result) and all the function calls while any calltrace is registered.

Arguments

This section describes the usage of the dbg-runner. We will assume that the command is available, though you might need to either use the absolute path or add the path to the PATH variable.

Here's an overview of all parameters the calltrace adds:
