Data Display Debugger (GNU DDD) is a graphical user interface (using the Motif toolkit) for command-line debuggers such as GDB, [2] DBX, JDB, HP Wildebeest Debugger, [note 1] XDB, the Perl debugger, the Bash debugger, the Python debugger, and the GNU Make debugger. [4]
ptrace is a system call found in Unix and several Unix-like operating systems.By using ptrace (an abbreviation of "process trace") one process can control another, enabling the controller to inspect and manipulate the internal state of its target. ptrace is used by debuggers and other code-analysis tools, mostly as aids to software development.
GDB was first written by Richard Stallman in 1986 as part of his GNU system, after his GNU Emacs was "reasonably stable". [4] GDB is free software released under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It was modeled after the DBX debugger, which came with Berkeley Unix distributions. [4] From 1990 to 1993 it was maintained by John Gilmore. [5]
The GNU Binary Utilities, or binutils, is a collection of programming tools maintained by the GNU Project for working with executable code including assembly, linking and many other development operations.
strace is a diagnostic, debugging and instructional userspace utility for Linux.It is used to monitor and tamper with interactions between processes and the Linux kernel, which include system calls, signal deliveries, and changes of process state.
This is a list of commands from the GNU Core Utilities for Unix environments. These commands can be found on Unix operating systems and most Unix-like operating systems. GNU Core Utilities include basic file, shell and text manipulation utilities. Coreutils includes all of the basic command-line tools that are expected in a POSIX system.
In computing, rr is a debugging tool for Linux designed to record and replay program execution. During the replay phase, rr provides an enhanced gdb debugging experience that supports reverse execution. [1] rr was originally developed by Mozilla to debug Mozilla Firefox on commodity hardware and software.
The Intel compiler provides debugging information that is standard for the common debuggers (DWARF 2 on Linux, similar to gdb, and COFF for Windows). The flags to compile with debugging information are /Zi on Windows and -g on Linux. Debugging is done on Windows using the Visual Studio debugger, and on Linux using gdb.
