ProDG Debugger for Nintendo GameCube

The new stand-alone debugger includes the following main features:

[li]Create as many different debugger window types as you like to display CPU registers (in various bit configurations), memory, disassembly, source, local variables, watch points, etc.[/li]
[li]TTY pane to display printf streams.[/li]
[li]Source level debugging provides unlimited software breakpoints, single-step, step-over, run to cursor, etc., directly in your source code. Source code search paths allow source level debugging of anything you have source code for, regardless of who built it.[/li]
[li]Uses the industry standard ELF file format with DWARF debug information.[/li]
[li]Fast update and display of target information.[/li]
[li]Configurable debugger windows layout can be saved and restored.[/li]

[li]SN Systems compiler driver, assembler and linker[/li]
[li]Optional integration with Microsoft Visual Studio[/li]

ProDG Target Manager for Nintendo GameCube

[li]Connect multiple applications to the target via the same interface[/li]

ProDG for Nintendo GameCube Visual Studio integration

The integration includes a set of Nintendo GameCube AppWizards to help you build executables and libraries which can then be debugged as they run on the Nintendo GameCube development hardware.

A toolbar button enables the ProDG Debugger to be called directly from Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0, allowing the developer to download and start debugging a module while still inside the Visual Studio integrated development environment.

The Visual Studio integration has the following main features:

[li]Builds your project using SN's compiler driver and linker.[/li]
[li]Outputs compiler and linker errors/warnings in Visual Studio format so that double-clicking on a build error in the output window opens the source file on the appropriate line in the Visual Studio editor[/li]
[li]Enables the ProDG debugger to be called directly from Visual Studio to debug the current project[/li]
[li]Imports and exports Visual Studio breakpoints at the start/end of a debug session in the ProDG debugger[/li]
[li]Ability to open source shown in the debugger source pane, in the Visual Studio Editor to enable source file editing[/li]
