Method and device for debugging application program

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for debugging an application program. A monitoring component is added into a debugged system. The debugged application program is subjected to reverse attach into a debugging system through the monitoring component, and the debugging system does not need to be subjected to attach into the debugged application program. Accordingly, during application program debugging, the debugged application program does not need to be ended, the debugged application program can be subjected to dynamic debugging, and system performance and system availability are improved. The relevant information of a debugged variable and relevant information of a debugged function are sent to the debugging system through the monitoring component, the debugging system directly outputs debugging results according to the relevant information of the debugged variable and relevant information of the debugged function, on the basis that the debugged application program does not export a debugging symbol table, a disassembling mode does not need to be used for debugging the debugged application program, and the complexity of application program debugging by the debugging system is effectively lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer applications, in particular to a method and device for debugging application programs. Background technique [0002] At present, when debugging an application program in a computer, a method of loading (attaching) a debugger into the process space of the debugged application program is usually adopted. [0003] When using the above method to debug the debugged application program, the central processing unit (Central Processing Unit, CPU) executes the debugging instruction sent by the debugger, so that the debugger enters the process space of the debugged application program. At this time, the CPU will The debug command stops the operation of the debugged application even if the debugged application is terminated, and enables the debugger to acquire the debugged parameters. However, in a network application scenario, the termination of the above-mentioned called application program will cause network inte...
