Do we have similar windows API of DebugBreak in Unix/ Linux. I want to debug a daemon process which should open NetBeans when DebugBreak statement is executed. Thanks in advance.

This causes SIGILL (illegal instruction) when hit, and subsequently kills the program. At least for me. Using raise(SIGTRAP) works. – Callender 21/2, 2018 at 16:17
