  • Patent number: 6412106
    Abstract: A system and method for graphically debugging a computer program is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, a graphical debugging environment is provided, which is capable of displaying a graphical representation of an application program to be debugged. Thereafter, the graphical debugging environment allows a user to insert debugging tools, such as breakpoints, directly into the graphical representation of the application program. Thus, a user is not required to interact with the textual source code of an application program when debugging it. The graphical debugging environment may display indicators illustrating where debug tools have been inserted within the application program. In a preferred embodiment, the graphical debugging environment allows a user to perform debugging during an application program's runtime. Thus, a user is not required to halt an application program prior to debugging it.
