You don't seriously believe I'd ship the debugger with every unit, do you? It's a tool like and ICE or whatever. It goes in when trouble is being sought out, and comes back out when the job's done. The NASA maxim has been quoted in this thread before: "Fly what you test, and test what you fly" If you test with a resident debugger in place, then ship with the debugger removed, you haven't tested the shipped system! Surely this argues for a minimal resident debug kernel that is permanently present in both the shipped and the tested systems...? |
