The line-oriented debugger DEBUG.EXE is an external command in operating systems such as DOS, OS/2 and Windows (only in 16-bit/32-bit versions [1]).. DEBUG can act as an assembler, disassembler, or hex dump program allowing users to interactively examine memory contents (in assembly language, hexadecimal or ASCII), make changes, and selectively execute COM, EXE and other file types.
WinDbg is a multipurpose debugger for the Microsoft Windows computer operating system, distributed by Microsoft. [2] Debugging is the process of finding and resolving errors in a system; in computing it also includes exploring the internal operation of software as a help to development.
Microsoft Script Debugger is relatively minimal debugger for Windows Script Host-supported scripting languages, such as VBScript and JScript.Its user interface allows the user to set breakpoints and/or step through execution of script code line by line, and examine values of variables and properties after any step.
Dr. Watson is an application debugger included with the Microsoft Windows operating system. It may be named drwatson.exe , drwtsn32.exe or dwwin.exe , depending on the version of Windows. Overview
A debug menu or debug mode is a user interface implemented in a computer program that allows the user to view and/or manipulate the program's internal state for the purpose of debugging. Some games format their debug menu as an in-game location, referred to as a debug room (distinct from the developer's room type of Easter egg).
CodeView is a standalone debugger created by David Norris at Microsoft in 1985 as part of its development toolset. [1] It originally shipped with Microsoft C 4.0 and later. It also shipped with Visual Basic for MS-DOS, Microsoft BASIC PDS, and a number of other Microsoft language products. [2]
The debugging skill of the programmer can be a major factor in the ability to debug a problem, but the difficulty of software debugging varies greatly with the complexity of the system, and also depends, to some extent, on the programming language(s) used and the available tools, such as debuggers.
In computing, Verbose mode is an option available in many computer operating systems and programming languages that provides additional details as to what the computer is doing and what drivers and software it is loading during startup or in programming it would produce detailed output for diagnostic purposes thus makes a program easier to debug.
