| What debugger do the 64 bit developers use?
The 64-bit developers at Sun usually use the dbx debugger included with
the Sun Studio compilers, or the mdb debugger included with the OS.
(dbx is more like gdb - mdb takes a lot more work to learn and is more of
a forensic debugger than an interactive one, but is better suited for
kernel debugging. I normally use dbx unless there's an mdb plugin
module I need to use, simply because that's what I know best.)
| Also please note any Users Manuals for alternate
|debuggers.
Sun Studio 9 dbx: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-6692
Solaris 9 mdb: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/806-6545
