  Dynamic debugging technique - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dynamic Debugging Technique, or DDT, was the name of several debugger programs originally developed for DEC hardware, originally known as DEC Debugging Tape because it was distributed on paper tape.
The first version of DDT was developed at MIT for the PDP-1 computer in 1961, but newer versions on newer platforms continued to use the same name.
In addition to its normal function as a debugger, DDT was also used as a command shell for the MIT ITS operating system.

 Debugger   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
A debugger is a computer program that is used to debug (and sometimes test) computer software.
The same functionality which makes a debugger useful for eliminating accidental bugs allows it to be used as a cracking tool to learn how to evade copy protection and other programmed limitations.
Debuggers make the debugging process much easier and faster, to the point where the availability of a good one for a particular language and platform can sway the decision to use that language rather than another language that is superior in other respects but lacks such tools.

In this sense the term DDT is now archaic, having been widely displaced by "debugger" or names of individual programs like "adb", "sdb", "dbx", or "gdb".
Historical footnote: DDT was developed at MIT for the PDP-1 computer in 1961.
(The "tape" referred to was, incidentally, not magnetic but paper.) Sadly, this quotation was removed from later editions of the handbook after the suits took over and DEC became much more "businesslike".

 APPX Software - Dynamic Linking and the CALL Statement
The better way is "dynamic" linking, which is a way of combining functions in an external function library, with the APPX executable at run-time, WITHOUT end-user rebuilding of the APPX executable.
Using dynamic linking, if a C developer wants to make a new CALLable function available to APPX designers, all he/she needs to do is compile it (using platform- specific instructions listed below) then tell the APPX designers the name of the function and the full path to the binary library file containing it.
Follow the usual guidelines for robust function design, such as not requiring parameters to be passed by reference unless the function must modify them, free'ing all memory you allocate in the function before you exit the function, and being very careful when using pointers.

This class provides for debugging computer programs in order to ensure correct operation of software during its intended use, the debugging being performed at the time the program is under development.
Medium for delivering software, per se, such as punched cards, paper or magnetic tapes, magnetic and optical disks, pluggable modules, cartridges and cards, networks, and memories are classified in the appropriate device class.

 Dr. Dobb's | Debugging Multithreaded Applications | July 22, 2001
If you are debugging a multithreaded application, and it magically starts to work when you switch to the debugger, you should take that as an indication that the problem may be in the relationships between threads.
But we were able to see on the tape that faster typists were able to move to the new row before the thread for the previous row had finished executing.
Traditional debugging techniques can be helpful for finding many of the bugs, and new multithreading tools such as multithreaded debuggers and dynamic logging are making it even easier.

 Chapter 4 Native Dynamic SQL in Oracle8i
Dynamic SQL comes in extremely handy when you are building ad hoc query systems, when you need to execute DDL inside PL/SQL, and just generally when you don't know in advance exactly what you need to do or what the user will want to do.
Dynamic PL/SQL allows you to work at a higher level of generality, which can be both challenging and exhilarating.
Dynamic SQL is, of course, suited perfectly to this scenario, and I was able to fix their problem in no time at all (well, to be honest, at the time I fixed it using DBMS_SQL, but here's the NDS implementation):
