JHYDE - THE JAVA HYBRID DEBUGGER

Christian Hermanns, Herbert Kuchen

2011

Abstract

We present a hybrid debugger for the Java programming language which integrates declarative and omniscient debugging techniques. Omniscient debugging is an extension of trace debugging which is the most common debugging method for Java programs. Declarative debugging is a technique mostly used in the area of functional and logic approaches. By combining both techniques our debugger benefits from the advantages of both techniques. We demonstrate how to use our debugger and mention important aspects of its implementation. Furthermore, we develop a declarative debugging strategy to reduce the number of questions and give empirical evidence of its usefulness.
