Abstract
Event management in a non-stop debugging environment that includes a debugger configured to debug a multi-threaded debuggee, where encountering an event by one of the threads stops execution of only the one thread without concurrently stopping execution of other threads and event management includes: receiving, by the debugger, a user request to establish a dynamically disabled event that is disabled for all threads upon a stop in execution of any thread; establishing, by the debugger, the dynamically disabled event; identifying, by the debugger, a stop in execution of a particular thread; and disabling, by the debugger, the dynamically disabled event for all threads of the debuggee.
Claims7
A method of event management in a non-stop debugging environment, the non-stop debugging environment comprising a debugger configured to debug a debuggee comprising a plurality of threads of execution, wherein encountering an event by one of the threads stops execution of only the one thread without concurrently stopping execution of other threads, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the debugger, a user request to establish a dynamically disabled event that is disabled for all threads upon a stop in execution of any thread;
- establishing, by the debugger, the dynamically disabled event;
- identifying, by the debugger, a stop in execution of a particular thread;
- and
- disabling, by the debugger, the dynamically disabled event for all threads of the debuggee.
