A debugger is a computer program that is used to debug (and sometimes test or optimize) other programs which might be running on the same computer (host computer) as the debugger is running, might be running on the target hardware, or might be running on the ISS.
The correct pronunciation of GNU is g'noo (IPA: /gnu/), with a hard "g", to distinguish it from the word new and for humorous effect; some individuals pronounce it identically to "new", but this practice causes confusion.
The GNU project was announced publicly on September 27, 1983, on the net.unix-wizards and net.usoft newsgroups.

 GNU Debugger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The GNU Debugger, usually called just GDB, is the standard debugger for the GNU software system.
It is a portable debugger that runs on many Unix-like systems and works for many programming languages, including C, C++, and FORTRAN.

 Embedding with GNU: GNU Debugger   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
However, GNU also has drawbacks: its components were originally designed for developing desktop applications in a Unix-like environment, they can be a challenge to set up and use for embedded development, and the documentation occasionally lacks detail in areas important to embedded developers.
GNU tools like gdb are generally distributed as source code, archived, and compressed into a single file using the tar and gzip utilities (available from GNU at www.gnu.org).
Instead, people highly skilled in the use and development of the GNU tools (including the authors of the tools themselves) are available 24 hours a day via a variety of Internet news groups (gnu.gdb.bug is one) and mail servers (www.sourceware.cygnus.com/gdb, for example).

Leadership Role in GNU Technologies Cygnus is the leading driver of innovations to the GNU source code (including debuggers and compilers) through the company's own development efforts as well as folded-in contributions from the Internet community.
In fact, Cygnus GNUPro development tools feature the industry leading GNU compiler - the toolchain used to build the Linux kernel and the GNU debugger that is backed by ten years of Cygnus expertise in porting (and maintaining) the GNU technology to more than 125 host/target combinations.

 The GNU Debugger
A symbolic debugger is a program that aids programmers in finding logical errors, by allowing them to execute their program in a controlled manner.
More precisely, a debugger allows a programmer to step through a program one statement at a time, and examine the values of variables (and expressions) following the execution of each statement.
Some way is needed to instruct the compiler to keep it for use by the debugger.

Embedding with GNU: The GNU Debugger (Sept, 1999)
On the other hand, although the GNU compiler and linker are the strong, silent types, they also sport some nifty features that can really ease the burden of writing solid, portable code for embedded systems.
The GNU linker is a powerful application as well, but in many cases there is no need to invoke ld directly—gcc invokes it automatically unless you use the -c (compile only) option.

 Debugging Options - Using the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC)
Produce debugging information in stabs format (if that is supported), using GNU extensions understood only by the GNU debugger (GDB).
The use of these extensions is likely to make other debuggers crash or refuse to read the program, and may cause assemblers other than the GNU assembler (GAS) to fail with an error.
Sometimes this is useful, such as if, in the debugger, you want to cast a value to a type that is not actually used in your program (but is declared).

If the debugger indicates that the crash occurred in some system or library function, it is probably your fault.

 GDB: The GNU Debugger
One more very useful feature of debuggers is to instruct them not to wait until the program crashes, but rather tell it to explicitly stop at a certain point in the source code.
When one of them is tripped, the program stops, and you are given the (gdb) prompt to use all the commands available to you to print data, change frames of reference, and other such commands just like you can with a crash.
