When writing PHP scripts for a complex website, it can be tricky to debug your code and remove bugs. This is due to the fact that you are running your scripts on a remote server (where your site is hosted). Most PHP programmers resort to using the Echo command or the var_dump() ...
Debugging a Dream
2008-04-13 01:33:00
A day ago, I gave up debugging something for the “Quit Smoking” site. I knew it was getting late and though I was not nodding in any direction, I probably could not run my tiny brain enough to solve the problem. I knew sleeping was the correct decision since I had to quit sleeping near daylight.It was long since I encountered such problem that it took me effortless near six hours to program the coding for just a simple feature. I woke up to continue with this endless project, keeping my concentration focused. It took me around an hour to debug and eventually felt accomplished.It seemed that perseverance had rewarded the effort but sadly, not every dream could come true. Skai Chan @ http://sillydumb.com
Console application debugging made easier
2008-03-27 16:09:00
When debugging console applications in .NET I like the program to pause just before exit so I can study the console output. One way to do this is to set a break point at the end of the application. This is OK but shifts the focus to the IDE which is annoying, especially in single screen environments like my laptop. I've found a better way. Place a finally block at the end of your program as follows. class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { try { // your code here... } finally { if (System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Is-Attached) { Console.WriteLine("Press [enter] to exit"); Console.ReadLine(); } } } } Now the program pauses while debugging allowing you to read the console output. powered by Bloget™ - "One File, One Binary, One Blog"

Using Debugging Tools in ASP.NET
2008-03-08 10:41:00
In the creation process, writing or drawing an outline plays a major role, because in case of a failure, you do not need to waste your time scratching your head. Instead, you can refer to the outline to solve the problem. In any kind of development, if the developer starts logging the steps involved, debugging or finding errors and fixing them becomes very systematic and easy.In programming, logging of the process usually refers to the ability of an application to incorporate the use of debugging, code tracing, performance counters, and event logs. In this section, you'll learn to use the different debugging tools.Visual Studio .NET DebuggerVisual Studio has always provided the developer with very powerful GUI debuggers, and Visual Studio .NET is no exception to this tradition. The debugger built into Visual Studio .NET is powerful and has a lot of new features compared to the debugger that was available with Visual Studio 6.0. Features that were previously available to the develop...
Debugging ASP.NET Pages
2008-03-07 17:39:00
While you are developing the application, the code editor catches most syntax errors. However, the errors that cannot be caught during application development cause the application to display error messages at run time. The errors that occur while the application is running are called run-time errors.On the other hand, if there is a problem in the programming logic, the application would run without errors, but it will not provide the desired functionality. Such errors are called logical errors. The process of going through the code to identify the root cause of an error in an application is called debugging.Error HandlingASP.NET provides rich support for handling and tracking errors that might occur while applications are running. When you run an ASP.NET application, if an error occurs on a server, an HTML error page is generated and displayed in the browser. While displaying error messages to users, ASP.NET takes care of the security issues by default, which makes it a reliable d...

Debugging Central Log Processes
2008-02-07 20:20:00
This topic does not apply to R/3 Systems running on IBM AS/400 or Microsoft Windows NT hosts. The log processes described in this topic aren?t required on these platforms. R/3 provides developers and system programmers with debugging facilities for system log processes. The debugging facilities consist of starting a process in trace mode. When in trace mode processes, exhaustively log their activities to trace logs. These traces logs are separate from the system log and unique to the send and collection processes. You can start the send and collect processes in trace mode using the following command line options: -v2 Redirect through stderr to a special log. -vt Write as free-format c-User entries in the R/3 trace file. This option is valid only if R/3 Trace is activated. -v The same as specifying both -v2 and -vt.Deleting Logs If you use debug mode, trace output is not written in the system log. Instead, trace output is written into a separate trace log. T...

The Lost Art of Debugging - Part 3 - Things To Do
2007-12-31 00:41:00
As I have said before, debugging is a complex and time consuming process. I have outlined 10 resources for debugging, and provided a primer for things not to do when debugging. Now, we get to the meat and potatoes of debugging. This is a guide of things to do when debugging. I have broken this guide into three sections - a description of the Scientific Method of Debugging, Tips for Hunting for Bugs, and Bug Prevention Methods. Scientific Method of Debugging This is a parallel to the Scientific Method that you learned in your grade school science class. The book Code Complete by Steve McDonnell outlines this methodology to debug your applications. Stabilize the bug by identifying the simplest test case that reproduces the error Locate the source of the bug Gather data about the bug and its behavior Analyze the data regarding the bug Form an hypothesis about the bug Write test cases that would prove or disprove your hypothesis Run the tests and prove your hypothesis, or begi...
The Lost Art of Debugging - Part 2 - Things Not To Do
2007-12-28 21:43:00
Debugging is a complex and time consuming process.  In my last post I listed 10 Resources for Debugging, both web sites and books, that every software developer should read to keep their debugging skills sharp.  Knowing what not to do is just as important as knowing what you should do.  Here is a list of things not to do when you are debugging your application Don't guess what the problem is Don't dive into making changes without a plan Don't code right away without a thorough analysis Don't fix the shell of the problem, not the problem itself Don't trust line numbers in compiler messages In fact, don't trust the compiler messages at all Don't ignore the value of automated unit testing Don't delete the original code Don't ignore recent changes to your application Don't ignore resources available to you, like the Internet or the Library This post is a teaser for the one that is to come - what thins should I do when debugging?  Is there a more forma...

Debugging
2007-11-30 17:02:00
Debugging is not part of testing but is a consequence of testing. Debugging is the process of analyzing and locating errors when software does not behave as expected. The commonly used debugging methods include debugging by induction or deduction and debugging by backtracking. Debugging by backtracking in the source code from the point where an error was observed in an attempt to identify the exact point where the error occurred.

The Lost Art of Debugging - 10 Resources
2007-11-30 00:40:00
Debugging is as much of an art as it is a science. There are lots of great tools to help developers debug their code. I believe developers, including myself, have learned to depend too much on these tools instead of thinking through the problem. There is a common thread across all programming languages and development platforms. That thread is the way that you approach, identify, and tackle a bug. To help develop an environment of good debugging practices, I have decided to write a series of blogs on technology agnostic debugging techniques. My first post about The Lost Art of Debugging is a blogroll of resources, both electronic and print, that developers should read to help develop good debugging techniques. Here are ten great resources on the methodology of debugging.

Debugging the Patient
2007-08-23 14:00:00
In a recent issue of the International Journal of Psychiatry in Medicine (Issue 37(1)), a series of case studies describing six patients suffering from delusional parasitosis are presented.    Also known as Ekbom's syndrome, delusional parasitosis is a form of psychosis in which patients believe that they are infested with parasites (eg, worms, insects, or bacteria).   It can be found as a stand-alone delusion or as part of a broader diagnosis such as schizophrenia.  In the presented case series, the six patients were treated with atypical antipsychotic medications including amisulpride, olanzapine, and risperidone. While non-oral administration of medication (usually intravenously) was found to be beneficial in most cases, medical complications (including one patient who had a myocardial infarction after being given amisulpride) made treatment difficult in some cases.  Click here for the abstract.

Visual Studio 2005 Debugging Tips
2007-06-28 18:12:00
One of my developers at work posted this on our "tips" blog. Good stuff... Just in case you?ve never tried, it - the next time you?re looking at a call stack while stopped at a break point in visual studio 2005, try right clicking in the call stack window and investigating some of the context menu options. Here?s some that stand out. Discovering the first one just gave me a some good insight into why .NET control events were being fired without my, or our users, instigation. It is especially useful in combo with Reflector. .NET (http://www.aisto.com/roeder/do-tnet/) Show External Code Changes those single line, obstuse call stack phrases ?[External Code]? into illuminating exposs of internal .NET assembly method call stacks, complete with cracked message and parameter info.

Eclipse is an integrated development environment (IDE) that provides workspace management, code and debug application. Eclipse is known to many Java developers because of its rich features that make their programming task easier. IBM Developer Works discussed about debugging your code using Eclipse. Find out how to use the built-in debugging features in the Eclipse Platform for debugging software projects. Debugging is something programmers can’t avoid. There are many ways to go about it, but it essentially comes down to finding the code responsible for a bug. For example, one of the most common errors in Linux® applications is known as a segmentation fault. This occurs when a program attempts to access memory not allocated to it and terminates with a segmentation violation. To fix this kind of error, you need to find the line of code that triggers the behavior. Once the line of code in question has been found, it is also useful to know the context in which the error occur...
Debugging a Service on Windows Vista
2007-03-15 20:22:00
This is a great post about debugging a service on Vista platform.   I recently picked up John Robbins'excellent Debugging Microsoft .NET 2.0 Applicationsand was flipping through it to discover just what new things I would learn and/or remind myself of. His brilliant description of setting up a local symbol server could not have been more well-timed - I spoke with a customer literally the next day who a symbol server was the perfect solution for, and rather than having them wade through the documentation to understand exactly how to do this, I could just lift up the book (as I said, it was litterally the next day, so it was still in my bag) and say "get this and go to this chapter." Saved me a lot of time, and solved a serious customer isue. Technorati Tags: Windows read more

Engadget is against debugging
2007-01-26 18:59:01
Cease and desist letters to bloggers provide the little things in life that make us smile. Most recently, Engadget received a C&D letter for (mis?)using the term "ant farm" in a post they made about a belt-clip sized ant farm (oops!) gadget for kids. The letter reads:"Our company, Uncle Milton Industries, Inc. is the owner of the registered trademark, "Ant Farm(R)" for our brand of ant habitat products. The phrase is not generic. We note the use of our trademark to describe a competitor's product in your website page noted above, as well as in the "Antquarium" page referenced on your site. We request that you delete the phrase "ant farm" and substitute it with a generic phrase, such as "ant habitat."Aw, don't PR people say the darndest things? Let me think about that one while I have a Kodak moment caught on FujiFilm of "LOL"-ing so hard I pissed myself (LOLAPM!!1!1!).
