Abstract
A method for debugging software on a computer includes performing a simulation in which a signal undesired during normal operation is added to a signal value when the signal value is input to a plurality of external terminals included in hardware that executes the software and includes a processor and at least one input and output device, and judging whether or not a factor determining the signal value corresponding to the external terminal requested to display the signal value is the input from the outside to the hardware by checking whether or not the signal undesired during the normal operation is added.
Claims12
A method for debugging software on a computer, comprising:
- performing a simulation in which a signal undesired during normal operation is added to a signal value when the signal value is input as an input from outside to hardware to a plurality of external terminals included in the hardware that executes the software and includes a processor and at least one input and output device;
- and
- judging whether or not a factor determining the signal value corresponding to the external terminal requested to display the signal value is the input from the outside to the hardware by checking whether or not the signal undesired during the normal operation is added.
A computer-readable recording medium adapted to store a program for debugging software on a computer, the program causing the computer to execute operations of:
- performing a simulation in which a signal undesired during normal operation is added to a signal value when the signal value is input as an input from outside to hardware to a plurality of external terminals included in the hardware that executes the software and includes a processor and at least one input and output device;
- and
- judging whether or not a factor determining the signal value of the external terminal requested to display the signal value is the input from the outside to the hardware by checking whether or not the signal undesired during the normal operation is added.
