-# Debug using xds-gdb from command line
+# Using the XDS Command Line
-## XDS remote debugging mode
+You can debug your AGL application using the XDS command line
+in XDS remote mode or in native mode.
-First the project you want to debug must be declared on an xds-server and this
-project may also has been built using using XDS (see [Create your first AGL application](./4_build-first-app.html) for more details).
+## XDS Remote Mode
-So to debug it you need to have the XDS agent - server chain in place and
-you also need the project and sdk unique id.
+XDS remote debugging is the default mode for using XDS to debug your
+application.
-You can find these IDs in project page of XDS dashboard or you can get them from command line using the `--list` option.
-This option lists all existing projects ID:
+Follow this procedure to use XDS remotely to debug your application:
-```bash
-xds-gdb --list
-```
+1. Declare the project you want to debug to the `xds-server`.
+ The project can also have been built using XDS.
+ See the "[Create your first AGL application](../../../#create-your-first-agl-application)"
+ topic for more details.
+
+2. Be sure you have the XDS agent and XDS server chain in place.
+ You can find more information on this chain in the
+ "[Installing XDS](../../../#installing-xds)" topic.
+
+3. Determine the unique project and SDK ID values.
+ Two methods exist for you to locate these ID values:
+
+ - Use the "Project" page of the XDS dashboard.
+
+ - Use the `xds-gdb --list` command from the XDS command line.
+ This command returns the list of all existing project and SDK
+ IDs:
-Now to refer your project, just set `XDS_PROJECT_ID` and `XDS_SDK_ID` variables.
+ ```bash
+ xds-gdb --list
+ ```
-You are now ready to use `xds-gdb` to for example cross debug your project.
+4. Define the `XDS_PROJECT_ID` and `XDS_SDK_ID` variables.
+ Defining these variables refers the project to the
+ `xds-server`.
+ Once you refer the project, you are ready to use `xds-gdb`
+ (e.g. cross debug your project).
-Here is an example to build and debug a project based on CMakefile and
+5. Build and debug the project.
+
+**Example**
+
+Following is an example that builds and debugs a project
+based on a CMakefile and the
[cmake-apps-module](https://git.automotivelinux.org/src/cmake-apps-module/):
```bash
-# Go into your project directory (for example helloworld-native-application)
+# Go into your project directory (e.g. helloworld-native-application)
cd ~/xds-workspace
+# Clone the project files into your local directory.
git clone https://github.com/iotbzh/helloworld-native-application.git
+# Go to the local project's directory.
cd helloworld-service
# Declare your project on xds-server
-# <for now, you can only do this step using xds HTML dashboard (see xds-server doc)>
+# For now, you can only do this step using the XDS Dashboard.
+# See the "Build Using the XDS Dashboard" topic in the "Create Your
+# First Application" topic.

## Native debugging
-To enable native debugging mode, you need to define `XDS_NATIVE_GDB` variable.
+Native debugging is best for applications or services that are also
+built natively and you want to use any debugger (e.g. GDB) on an actual
+piece of hardware.
+
+To enable native debugging mode, set the `XDS_NATIVE_GDB` variable.
+
+For information on debugging with GDB, see
+"[Debugging with GDB](https://www.sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb.html)".
