Subject: [Snort-devel] How to debugging on Snort?

Hello Everyone ,

I want to debug Snort but I didn't find something help me. Actually I want to learn that: Packets come in to network 
and Snort catches them. After that, Snort checks packets by rules. How can I see what Snort checks at a time and output 
of this check process?

Example check process for packet P1;

Searching for :
   content:"sa"
   offset:5
depth:10

output -> found or 1

continue to check packet p1:

content: "|02|"
offset: 33
depth: 45
.
.
.

output -> not found or 0
