#DOS CALL TRACING?

Is there a commercial or shareware product which runs as a TSR and which intercepts all INT 21 calls and writes them to disk? This would be incredibly useful in understanding the actions of programs with tracing the whole thing. We use Quaid Analyzer to do this now but it is not streamlined listing of DOS calls. An alternative to the TSR might be an EXE file which loaded the target program and executed it in a shell. Any ideas? Thanks ]

Chris, It's not shipping yet, but our new Turbo Profiler lets you trace calls to any interrupt, as well as doing the more obvious things that you'd expect from a profiler. Before you ask, the projected ship date is 2nd quarter of this year. — Pete

The WATCH program that comes with JPI C's TechKit is just what you need. It can diagnose DOS calls and write them to disk, and is settable as to which calls is reports. I've used it to figure out what was wrong with a program that gave me insufficiant error reports. –John

Chris, TopSpeed C has a TSR named WATCH that does what you are looking for. Al Stevens
