Comment on Reverse Debugging with GDBparent

Comments

It is. But that one time when you will be dealing with a Heisenbug, you will be thankful for it.

The thing with Heisenbugs is that they usually don't happen when you attach a debugger.

That kind of depends. They can also happen not because you attached a debugger but because you set a break point in a particularly unfortunate location.

Oh man. I spent a couple of days tracking one of those down. When the light went on in my head I felt like such an idiot.
