Multiple user software debugging system

摘要

A minimally intrusive debugging system for use by multiple users for concurrently and independently debugging a common software target in a client and server debugging environment. The target software is a non-compiled interpreted script-type program that is individually controlled by independent client debugging sessions. Each debug engine in the client's debugging session is used to control the target software program using debug system library interface calls that are integrated into the executing target software program. The debug system library interface calls facilitate communication of target system program events to the client's debug engine and to extract internal operational information from said target software program by the client debug engine and target software program interface on each client computing device.
