<h1>Debug Aids For VVP<a class="headerlink" href="#debug-aids-for-vvp" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>Debugging vvp can be fiendishly difficult, so there are some built in
debugging aids. These are enabled by setting the environment variable
VVP_DEBUG to the path to an output file. Then, various detailed debug
tools can be enabled as described below.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>.resolv</p></li>
</ul>
<p>The .resolv can print debug information along with a label by
specifying the debug output label on the .resolv line:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>.resolv tri$&lt;label&gt;
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>In this case, the “$” character directly after the “tri” enables debug
dumps for this node, and the &lt;label&gt; is the label to prepend to log
messages from this node.</p>
