| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 1 GDB, the GNU Project debugger, allows you to see what is going on "inside" |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 2 another program while it executes -- or what another program was doing at |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 3 the moment it crashed. |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 4 |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 5 GDB can do four main kinds of things (plus other things in support of |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 6 these) to help you catch bugs in the act: |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 7 |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 8 * Start your program, specifying anything that might affect its behavior. |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 9 * Make your program stop on specified conditions. |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 10 * Examine what has happened, when your program has stopped. |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 11 * Change things in your program, so you can experiment with correcting |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 12 the effects of one bug and go on to learn about another. |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 13 |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 14 Those programs might be executing on the same machine as GDB (native), |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 15 on another machine (remote), or on a simulator. |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 16 GDB can run on most popular UNIX and Microsoft Windows variants, as well |
| Hans-G?nter@24587 | 17 as on Mac OS X. |
