Debugging method for debugging system

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose to enable debugging processing independent of synchronism between two machines by providing a 1st mode for transferring the result of debugging to a debugging machine while executing that debugging and a 2nd mode for storing the result in the internal storage device of a target machine.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable debugging processing independent of synchronism between two machines by providing a 1st mode for transferring the result of debugging to a debugging machine while executing that debugging and a 2nd mode for storing the result in the internal storage device of a target machine. SOLUTION: When a memory write option is turned on, debugging information designated as an argument is written in a memory 102B. When it is desired to stop recording the debugging information, the recording stop request command of debugging information is inputted from a keyboard 101A of a debugging machine 101. Thus, this command is transmitted to a target machine 102, and the memory write option is turned off by a microprocessor 102A of the target machine 102. In this case, the debugging information is transmitted to the debugging machine 101 while executing a debugging information output module at the target machine 102, and the transmitted debugging information is displayed on the screen of the debugging machine 101.
