Linux/Gcc/LD - Toolchain. I would like to remove STL/Boost debug symbols from libraries and executable, for two reasons: Linking gets very slow for big programs Debugging jumps into stl/boost code, which is annoying For 1. incremental linking would be a big improvement, but AFAIK ld does not support incremental linking. There is a w...

I have VS2005 and I am currently trying to debug an ASP.net web application. I want to change some code around in the code behind file, but every time I stop at a break point and try to edit something I get the following error message: "Changes are not allowed when the debugger has been attached to an already running process or the code ...
Is it possible to install the x86 Remote Debugger as a Service on a 64bit machine? I need to attach a debugger to managed code in a Session 0 process. The process runs 32bit but the debugger service that gets installed is 64bit and wont attach to the 32bit process. I tried creating the Service using the SC command, and was able to g...
JyDT is a good Jython Eclipse plugin. However, it doesn't allow Jython debugging in the Debug perspective. Jython provides a command-line debugger (Pdb) but it operates outside Eclipse. ...
I have tried: Xdebug and Eclipse. Eclipse launches a web browser, but the browser tries to access a non-existent file in Eclipse's .app bundle. Xdebug and NetBeans. It does a little bit better; a browser opens a page in /tmp which says "Launching. Please wait…" but nothing happens beyond that. Xdebug and debugclient, the CLI tool which...
Is there a unicode debug visualizer in Visual Studio 2008? I have a xml file that I'm pretty sure is in unicode. When I open it in wordpad, it shows the japanese characters correctly. When I read the file into a string using File.ReadAllText (UTF8), all the japanese characters show up as blocks in the string visualizer. If I use the xml ...
I have an ASP.NET 1.1 application, and on my local machine the submit button on my page works fine, but when I deploy it to our development application server, I click on Submit and nothing happens.. I'm assuming that the Page_Validate() function is failing and disabling the POSTBACK, but how do I debug this and determine what is failing...
I am having a really hard time attempting to debug LINQ to SQL and submitting changes. I have been using http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/07/31/linq-to-sql-debug-visualizer.aspx, which works great for debugging simple queries. I'm working in the DataContext Class for my project with the following snippet from my application:...

I am writing a simple checkers game in Java. When I mouse over the board my processor ramps up to 50% (100% on a core). I would like to find out what part of my code(assuming its my fault) is executing during this. I have tried debugging, but step-through debugging doesn't work very well in this case. Is there any tool that can tell ...
Is it possible to get a thread dump of a Java Web Start application? And if so, how? It would be nice if there were a simple solution, which would enable a non-developer (customer) to create a thread dump. Alternatively, is it possible to create a thread dump programmatically? In the Java Web Start Console I can get a list of threads b...
Is it possible to write code in a Flex application that will only be run in a debug build, or when running through the debugger? Does Flex provide a way to actually remove code entirely from release builds, like C-style #defines? The app is not necessarily running in a web page. ...
Is there a way to debug/trace every javascript event in Internet Explorer 7? I have a bug that prevents scrolling after text-selecting, and I have no idea which event or action creates the bug. I really want to see which events are being triggered when I move the mouse for example. it's too much work to rewire the source and i kinda h...
Debugging is the most time consuming activity of programming. So using appropriate tools and techniques is paramount to efficiency and productivity. What are your favorite debugging techniques, and in which cases do you apply each of them? There are many orthogonal criteria to consider: Programming languages (tools usually are langua...
I'm having a problem debugging an Eclipse Application from Eclipse. When I launch the Debug Configuration, the Eclipse Application starts up and then stops repeatedly. It shows the splash screen and then disappears. This is the farthest it gets before restarting: MyDebugConfiguration [Eclipse Application] org.eclipse.equinox.la...
Hello all. So I have a nasty stack overflow I have been trying to track down / solve for the past 8 hours or so, and I'm at the point where i think i need advice. The details: Interestingly enough this code runs fine when called in the context of our regular winforms application -- but I am tasked with writing a web-based version of ...
I'd like to create a "universal" debug logging function that inspects the JS namespace for well-known logging libraries. For example, currently it supports Firebug's console.log: var console = window['console']; if (console && console.log) { console.log(message); } Obviously, this only works in Firefox if Firebug is installed/enabl...
What is a good strategy for sniffing/tracing function calls between a Flex application and a ColdFusion-based backend running on ColdFusion server? I understand they use AMF protocol. I'm used to using Fiddler to sniff transactions between HTTP clients and servers, and it works great as long as you're using plain text or XML HTTP reques...
I have an application that uploads an Excel .xls file to the file system, opens the file with an oledbconnection object using the .open() method on the object instance and then stores the data in a database. The upload and writing of the file to the file system works fine but I get an error when trying to open the file on our production...
