Debuggers are a wasteful Timesink Uncle Bob has started an interesting discussion by suggesting that Debuggers are a wasteful Timesink. He writes, "I consider debuggers to be a drug -- an addiction. Programmers can get into the horrible habbit of depending on the debugger instead of on their brain. IMHO a debugger is a tool of last resort. "
Code Spelunking: Exploring Cavernous Code Bases In this ACM Queue article Code Spelunking: Exploring Cavernous Code Bases, George V. Neville-Neil writes " Debugging is a highly focused task: You have a program, it runs, but not correctly. You must find out why it does this, where it does this, and then repair it. What's wrong with the program is usually your only known quantity. Finding the needle buried in the haystack is your job, so the first question must be, 'Where does the program make a mistake?'"

aTrack: a bug tracking application using AOP: The aTrack project has just been promoted from the incubator into the General Projects category. The aTrack project is "an open source bug tracking application that demonstrates use of Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) with AspectJ." It is also intended to be a show case for "design patterns for building an enterprise-class Java system with AOP using lightweight open source components and frameworks". A good entry point is the project Wiki. |
