DEBUGGING REMOTE SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS ACROSS WAN CONNECTIONS

摘要

The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for providing remote debugging of a software or cloud application across a wide area network. A method includes transmitting, from a remote communication device to a client or cloud computing device, instructions to adjust a running application to a debugging mode; receiving, at the remote communication device from a server, aggregated thread data in a data packet by using a second debugging data protocol different from the Java Debug Wire Protocol; receiving a debugging command and applying the debugging command to the application running in the debugging mode.

1. A computer-implemented method for receiving a remote debugging of a software application across a wide area network connection, the method comprising:
receiving, at a local computing device, instructions from a remote communication device to adjust a running software application to a debugging mode, the remote communication device communicatively connected to a local server via a wide area network connection; receiving, at the local server from the local computing device, thread data associated with the software application, the thread data transmitted via a first debugging data protocol; aggregating, at the local server, the received thread data and transmitting the aggregated thread data in a data packet to the remote communication device by using a second debugging data protocol that is different than the first debugging protocol; receiving, at the local server, a debugging command from the remote communication device, the debugging command transmitted via the second debugging data protocol; and transmitting, from the local server to the local computing device by using the first debugging data protocol, instructions to apply the debugging command to the software application running in the debugging mode.
