    Abstract: A method to automatically monitor an object-oriented program, e.g., for debugging purposes, is characterized by the steps of determining a state of the digital data processor at selected points during execution of the program and, from that state, determining the status of objects created the program. The method also contemplates generating an animated graphical display reflecting the status of those selected objects, and their interrelationships, substantially concurrently with execution of the program.
