Debugging

Now let's look at the different options you have for debugging the executable.

Debugging in a cross-development environment
The debugger can run on one platform to debug executables on another:
The GNU debugger (gdb)
The GNU debugger is a command-line program that provides a very rich set of options.
The process-level debug agent
When a breakpoint is encountered and the process-level debug agent _pdebug_ is in control, the process being debugged and all its threads are stopped. All other processes continue to run and interrupts remain enabled.
