Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method, computer-readable storage medium, and computer system are provided. In an embodiment, a command is received that specifies a debug compile option and requests a compile of a module into object code. If the debug compile option specifies a first debug compile option, snapshot instructions are inserted immediately prior to each machine instruction in the object code at which a breakpoint was previously set. If the debug compile option specifies the first debug compile option, snapshot instructions are inserted immediately prior to each machine instruction in the object code that implements a control flow statement.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: receiving a command that specifies a debug compile option and requests a compile of a module into object code within a current debugging session; if the debug compile option specifies a first debug compile option within the current debugging session, inserting snapshot instructions immediately prior to each machine instruction in the object code at which a breakpoint was previously set within a previous debugging session that has ended…
