********************* DBG -- README ********************
The goal of this project was to produce a debugger similar
to gdb in order to debug C programs.
I/ How to launch my-dgb
The build system I used is CMake. Here are the steps to
follow to launch my-dbg:
* Create a directory and change to that directory
* Run command "cmake .."
* Run "make"
* Run "./my-dbg your_program"
I added c files in the test directory as a start.
II/ What my-dbg supports
I was able to create a simple debugger that can trace a C program
and perform various operations on it. Unfortunately it is not
a high level debugger but this is a list of what my-dbg supports:
* Reading and writing to registers
* Getting memory info on process
* Breakpoints on adresses
* Continue of execution
* Single step for assembly instruction
* Reading memory with d and x format
* Backtrace
* Temporary breakpoints
* Delete of breakpoints
* List of breakpoints
III/ How to use my-dbg
You have to work with the adresses in your program.
To identify them use "objdump -d your_program"
It will disassemble your executable and output
useful information.
IV/ Feedback
What I enjoyed about this project is that there was
different kind of commands/features that we could choose
to work on and improve.
However, I could not work on everyone of them but I
would gladly improve my-dbg durng my free time.
