Original Kurzfassung:
The Oberon environment offers only limited possibilities for inspecting
run time information, as well as for determining the cause for an
exception. Only variables of basic types such as INTEGER or CHAR can be
examined. This paper presents a post mortem debugger that allows also
the inspection of structured types such as RECORD or ARRAY. It supports
views of all local and global variables of any type. Run time types are
supported as well as dynamic arrays. It is possible to follow variables of
type POINTER in order to traverse complex data structures. Additionally,
the trap position in the source code can be viewed. Special attention has
been paid to make the debugger easily portable. The debugger has been
ported to several Oberon systems (SPARC, RS6000, Windows and
PowerMac). This required only minor changes. Another goal was to embed
the debugger into the Oberon environment as smoothly as possible. This
results in a look and feel typical for Oberon.
