Track Down Bugs and Improve Your Code

March 20, 2024
IDEs with debugging support save time and frustration by helping you identify and fix errors in your code directly within the coding environment.

Debugging is the methodical process of identifying and rectifying errors or bugs within code. Many Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) provide a platform for debugging by allowing programmers to step through code execution line by line, examine variable values at specific points, and set breakpoints to pause execution at designated sections. This controlled environment empowers developers to easily pinpoint the cause of issues and implement fixes.

Several IDEs provide debugging including:

  • Rider by JetBrains facilitates debugging .NET, ASP.NET, and Unity projects with breakpoints, variable inspection, and call stack navigation.
  • Delphi Professional by Embarcadero allows you to debug Windows applications, web services, and FireMonkey projects with a visual debugger and memory inspection.
  • PrimalScript by SAPIEN Technologies streamlines debugging for embedded systems development, offering hardware simulation and real-time variable monitoring.
  • Microsoft Visual Studio Professional empowers developers to debug projects with a source editor debugger, data visualizations, and IntelliTrace for complex issue identification.
