Overview
The Chronon Time Travelling Debugger allows you to playback Chronon recordings and easily find root cause of defects. It is specifically built from the ground up to allow debugging of long running programs that run for days/months and are highly multithreaded.
The debugger plugs seamlessly into Eclipse adapting itself naturally to your workflow. You can also use the Eclipse integration of the Chronon Debugger to easily record programs on your development machines from within Eclipse.
Benefits
Step Backwards to find root cause instantly
Chronon allows you to step not only forward, but also backward in your program’s execution. The Step Backward functionality is critical to understanding what was it that led to say, throwing of an exception, in your program’s execution.
Jump instantly to any point in the execution of your program
Have a recording that is 50 hours long? You don’t need to wait another 50 hours to see what happens towards the end. The Chronon Time Travelling Debugger allows you to jump instantly to any point in the execution of your program, making it extremely easy to debug long running programs. You can instantly see the entire state of your program, all the threads, variables, etc when you jump to any point in time.
Designed from the ground up for Multithreaded Programs
Chronon is not like your traditional debugger. We designed it from the ground up to allow easy debugging of complex, highly multithreaded programs.
No need for log files
The groundbreaking Post Execution Logging feature allows you to add logging to any piece of code *after* it has run and see the results instantly. This means you can get rid of log files and the pesky log statements cluttering your code.
Highly Integrated with Eclipse
We’ve integrated with the top free IDE in the world. Chronon integrates seamlessly with Eclipse. No need to learn a whole new environment. You can literally become a master of Chronon in minutes and start debugging immediately.
