The Support Debugging Tool
The Support Debugging Tool is a Dexterity-based suite of utilities and tools created to assist with the task of supporting Microsoft Dynamics GP.
Some examples of purposes where the Support Debugging Tool can be used are listed below:
- To identify the specific series of events which lead up to an issue or bug in the code occurring.
- To quickly and simply turn on all logging and profiling capabilities without restarting the application. This can be useful when looking at performance problems.
- To find details about dictionary resources.
- To identify resources (forms, reports and tables) causing security access issues.
- To enable and disable third party products or change the order of the products in the launch file.
- To export data from and import data to any table.
- To run SQL or Dexterity scripts without needing Dexterity or SQL Administration Tools installed.
- To capture and email or save screenshots of all open windows and a system status report.
The Support Debugging Tool is installed by copying the Debugger.cnk (self-installing dictionary), Debugger.txt (readme file) and Debugger.pdf (this user guide manual) to the Microsoft Dynamics GP application folder. When Microsoft Dynamics GP is next launched, select “Yes” to include new code. The Support Debugging Tool requires the version 8.00 Dexterity Runtime update 8.00m88 or version 9.00 Service Pack 3 or later. The Support Debugging Tool works with all builds of version 10.00.
