Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debugging is crucial to successful software development, but even many experienced programmers find it challenging. Sophisticated debugging tools are available, yet it may be difficult to determine which features are useful in which situations. The Art of Debugging is your guide to making the debugging process more efficient and effective. The Art of Debugging illustrates the use three of the most popular debugging tools on Linux/Unix platforms: GDB, DDD, and Eclipse. The text-command based GDB (the GNU Project Debugger) is included with most distributions. DDD is a popular GUI front end for GDB, while Eclipse provides a complete integrated development environment. In addition to offering specific advice for debugging with each tool, authors Norm Matloff and Pete Salzman cover general strategies for improving the process of finding and fixing coding errors, including how to: –Inspect variables and data structures –Understand segmentation faults and core dumps –Know why your program crashes or throws exceptions –Use features like catchpoints, convenience variables, and artificial arrays –Avoid common debugging pitfalls Real world examples of coding errors help to clarify the authors’ guiding principles, and coverage of complex topics like thread, client-server, GUI, and parallel programming debugging will make you even more proficient. You'll also learn how to prevent errors in the first place with text editors, compilers, error reporting, and static code checkers. Whether you dread the thought of debugging your programs or simply want to improve your current debugging efforts, you'll find a valuable ally in The Art of Debugging.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First In-Depth, Real-World, Insider’s Guide to Powerful Windows Debugging For Windows developers, few tasks are more challenging than debugging–-or more crucial. Reliable and realistic information about Windows debugging has always been scarce. Now, with over 15 years of experience two of Microsoft’s system-level developers present a thorough and practical guide to Windows debugging ever written. Mario Hewardt and Daniel Pravat cover debugging throughout the entire application lifecycle and show how to make the most of the tools currently available–-including Microsoft’s powerful native debuggers and third-party solutions. To help you find real solutions fast, this book is organized around real-world debugging scenarios. Hewardt and Pravat use detailed code examples to illuminate the complex debugging challenges professional developers actually face. From core Windows operating system concepts to security, Windows® VistaTM and 64-bit debugging, they address emerging topics head-on–and nothing is ever oversimplified or glossed over!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For professional software developers, debugging is a way of life. This book is the definitive guide to Windows debugging, providing developers with the strategies and techniques they need to fulfill one of their most important responsibilities efficiently and effectively. Debugging Windows Programs shows readers how to prevent bugs by taking full advantage of the Visual C++ development tools and writing code in a way that makes certain types of bugs impossible. They also will learn how to reveal bugs with debugging statements that force bugs to expose themselves when the program is executed, and how to make the most of debugging tools and features available in Windows, Visual C++, MFC, and ATL. The authors provide specific solutions to the most common debugging problems, including memory corruption, resource leaks, stack problems, release build problems, finding crash locations, and multithreading problems. These essential topics are covered: The debugging process Writing C++ code for debugging Strategically using assertions, trace statements, and exceptions Windows postmortem debugging using Dr. Watson and MAP files Using the Visual C++ debugger Debugging memory Debugging multithreaded programs Debugging COM Each chapter provides developers with exactly what they need to master the subject and improve development productivity and software quality. Comprehensive, current, and practical, Debugging Windows Programs helps developers understand the debugging process and make the most of the Visual C++ debugging tools. 020170238XB04062001

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design and development of digital computer software for distributed concurrent programming environments has increased significantly in the past few years. The presence of remote processors and concurrency greatly complicates the creation, analysis, testing, and debugging of all software produced for these environments. It appears that few tools developed for sequential environments are adequate for debugging software programs in a distributed concurrent environment. The distributed concurrent environment also presents the need for special debugging tools that were not needed for sequential environments. This research will present a new model for debugging programs in a distributed concurrent programming environment. This new model was used to design, develop, and implement an integrated, cooperating set of concurrent debugging tools. The new debugging model and tool set were used in a distributed Concurrent C development environment running under the UNIX® operating system and connected by an Ethernet local area network. Actual results obtained from using the new debugging scheme and integrated debugging tool set to detect, locate, and correct software faults in distributed Concurrent C programs are also presented.
