METHOD FOR PROCESSING THE VOLUME OF INFORMATION HANDLED DURING THE DEBUGGING PHASE OF OPERATIONAL SOFTWARE ONBOARD AN AIRCRAFT AND DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING THE SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a method for processing the volume of information handled during the debugging phase of an operational software onboard an aircraft, characterised in that it comprises the following steps: a) dividing (32) the execution path of said operational software into functional intervals by placing progression points at each function of the program; b) placing (33) control points associated with each progression point; c) normal execution of the program that comprises: storing the execution state of the program at the location of each progression point, wherein the storage of an execution state results in the suppression of the execution state previously stored for said progression point; upon the detection of an error: searching the progression point corresponding to a faulty function; searching (41) for a software start execution state; regenerating (42) the start execution state; correcting (44) the error in the faulty function; and re-executing the program.
