What are you using the debugger for? [closed]
- by Peter Gfader
Some scenarios that I can think of:
Reading/Understanding code
Understanding the flow (what happens when)
Stop program and see where it is up to
a. Attach debugger
b. Exception -- Debug
Discover API
Run to breakpoint and verify state

What are you using the debugger for?
Which scenario did you ran into, that you needed the debugger?
Could you have done it differently?
