Embedded Debugging of C/C++ Plugins and Extension Modules

Tags: c++

Overview Today, C and C++ are frequently used to write programs that operate as dynamic link libraries, plugins, and extensions of large application frameworks and high level programming languages. An unfortunate side-effect of this programming style is that it makes debugging considerably more difficult. Traditional debuggers don't work as well with extension modules because of the complexity of execution environment. Moreover, the information they provide may be incomplete. To address this limitation, this paper has been exploring an alternative approach to debugging plugin modules in which a small C/C++ debugger is embedded into the application framework itself. This embedded debugger requires no modifications to the application or plugin modules.
