Postmortem debugging on OS/2

Note: Postmortem debugging is supported in the OS/2 environment through the @ITRAPPER; program. It is not available on Windows.

Use the debugger's postmortem debugging capabilities to debug failing programs that are already in production. Postmortem debugging is only useful when a program fails by trapping or by throwing an OS/2 exception, and your development site cannot easily reproduce the failure. When a trap or exception occurs in a production version of your program, relevant information such as process and thread IDs, register and memory contents, can be saved to a dump file, and this dump file can then be sent to you for debugging.
