The debugger provides many features that can be useful for ROM hacking and Homebrew development. It provides customizable syntax highlighting, trace logging, breakpoints and watchpoints. It also allows to load source files to show instead of a disassembly of your ROM. A Reference Hierarchy helps in understanding a program flow, the profiler helps in identifying performance hotspots. A powerful expression syntax allows the definition of useful conditions for breakpoints/watchpoints. Breakpoints halting on accesses of uninitialized memory and inconsistent states after interrupts can help to avoid unnecessary programming mistakes.
Gameboy Debugger For Mac Os X
Download: (Free)7. iDeasiDeaS is a free Nintendo DS emulator that runs several commercial ROMs and supports a wide range of NDS functionality. It uses a plugin system inspired by the N64 emulator, UltraHLE, and has a UI resembling the console. iDeas can run iconic games, like Super Mario 64, reasonably well, but you will notice some occasional graphics glitches. It supports the DS double screen setup and allows you to take snapshots of both screens. The emulator also offers touchscreen support and lets you remap keys for more customized gaming controls.On the flip-side, iDeas has not been in active development for years, which means you should not expect it to add support for newer games. It should be on your download list only if you want to try an old Nintendo DS emulator, just to see what the emulation scene was like, back in the halcyon days of the console. Otherwise, look at other emulators like No$GBA that are under active development for better gameplay and ROM support.Pros: Dual-screen support, Touch support, Customizable settings, Built-in debugger
Cons: Occasional graphics glitches, Not under active development
Platforms: Windows

I basically only use the Test Explorer for exploring tests, then double clicking the entries to go to their source. This even works for generated tests, e.g. when using SpecFlow. At the location of the test method, simply click the 'Debug Test' link above the method header, as depicted below. This fires up the debugger, side stepping the Test Explorer entirely.
This is one of the best and fastest gameboy emulators around. Its builtin debugger is very useful for programmers. Downsides are sound and the fact that Gameboy color emulation for more than 3 minutes cost you money. (It's well worth the money if you're a programmer)
The emulators I found to be the best matches are no$gmb363300 and bgb364301. Both are similar feature wise; bgb seems to have been implemented based on no$gmb, so both interfaces look alike and also shortcuts in the debugger are mostly the same. bgb is still actively developed and you can also get tips by the developer in the EFNet #gbdev IRC channel.
rr is a deterministic debugger that enhances gdb by supporting the recording and replay (and even reverse-replay) of your program's execution. Very useful for accurately reproducing a hard-to-trigger issue such as a race condition or crash that only occurs under certain conditions.
ISX is the format that the Assembler (ISAS) compiles the programs into, it is a compressed version of the rom, to convert it into a standard gameboy rom you need to run it through CVTISX (ConvertISX).
This is a very old Gameboy assembler kit created around 1991 by Gremlin Graphics Software. Included in the kit the assembler, macros, debugger and Amiga to Gameboy sample converter, Gameboy file clipper, set memory application and a restart application 1.
Apple on Wednesday released Xcode 4, the latest version of its IDE for iOS and Mac OS X. The new release, in beta for nearly a year, combines several previously separate development tools into a single window interface. It also leverages new underlying tools such as the latest LLVM compiler and LLDB debugger and offers several time-saving features like automatic code checking. And while Xcode remains free to registered developers, Apple is now making Xcode available to any Mac OS X user via the Mac App Store for $4.99.
While Xcode by default uses GCC and GDB for compiling and debugging code respectively, Apple has begun offering support for a new compiler, LLVM, for some time. Xcode 4 supports LLVM 2 along with the optional Clang code parser for the fastest compile times and best performing compiled code. LLVM 2.0 supports C, Objective-C, and C++. A new LLDB debugger can be used instead of GDB, which according to Apple uses much less memory to run.
The last thing that is needed is a class that ties it all together.The emulator class has our Gameboy object and a window object.We load the ROM file and pass it to our gameboy, and initialize the window.
i'm really interested in this, but will wait for some more reviews and updates to the software before i jump in. the price is nice if nothing else than to just easily play on a bigger screen at home and then take my games with me to work (which is how I play roughly 85-95% of the time.. maybe this can push it closer to 70%). definitely beats dropping $300 on a gamecube with gameboy player. and that can't even back up my saves. 2ff7e9595c
