Debugging Best Practices

21 Oct 2004
Excellent post over at at Cedric's weblog about best practices with a debugger.
The point of this entry is not to revive this debate (let's leave cavemen into their caves) but to ponder the following question: why is there almost no information on how to use a debugger wisely? I don't mean the user manual telling you how to set a breakpoint and how to single-step through code. I mean a "good practice" guide.
He's right, there's probably a great many debugger tips and practices out there just waiting to be uncovered.
