Abstract: Managing thread execution in a non-stop debugging environment that includes a debugger configured to debug a multi-threaded debuggee, where encountering an event by one of the threads stops execution of only the one thread without concurrently stopping execution of other threads, and managing thread execution includes: setting, by the debugger responsive to one or more user requests, one or more threads of the debuggee for auto-resumption; encountering, by a thread of the debuggee, an event stopping execution of the thread; determining whether the thread is set for auto-resumption; if the thread is set for auto-resumption, resuming, by the debugger, execution of the thread automatically without user interaction; and if the thread is not set for auto-resumption, processing, by the debugger, the event stopping execution of the thread.
