Hello... I caught this email on another list but it's directly relevant to to us and as I've seen so many complaints about the (lame) state of our GNU debugger, I am sure there is sufficient interest.
Please test and submit feedback to cbergstrom@ as requested in his email. (FWIW, I suggested that Dtrace support would be awesome). ________ From: Christopher Bergström <cbergstrom AT NOSPAM pathscale DOT com> PathDB (debugger) has been ported to FreeBSD. Summary: x86/x86_64 debugger with the goal to drop-in replace gdb. We recently finished some heavy refactoring and now focusing on improving performance, *robustness*, scalability (clusters/multicore systems), DWARF4, OS portability and supported targets. PathDB has a library based design with a cli interface doing direct function calls. Using C-bindings it should be fairly trivial to extend or add a new front-end in python or other scripting language. Source git clone git://github.com/path64/debugger.git Current status (heavy development - expect bugs) GDB test suite results as of today (A lot of timeouts and at a glance it seems like a lot of trivial CLI stuff) FAIL: 747 PASS: 477 Log : https://gist.github.com/b44f708cc2242091bc20 --- Man page - http://www.pathscale.com/docs/pathdb.html User guide (Needs to be updated) - http://www.pathscale.com/docs/PathDB_UserGuide.pdf We'd love feedback and more testers. Bug reports can be sent to me (cbergstrom) directly or feel free to say hi on irc #pathscale - irc.freenode.net _______________________________________________ freebsd-toolchain@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-toolchain To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-toolchain-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
