This is the best debugging video on the net!! Well done

[@programmingelectronics]

Thanks!

Very interesting to see that the debugger session allows to jump into the hidden parts of the Arduino code! Thanks, very instructive, can't wait to get a j-link:)

[@programmingelectronics]

I thought that is pretty cool too! Really helps you start to see behind the scenes.

one of the best video ever, not to say the best video, with of the box tools ! briliant

Glad you liked it!

When/why is the GDB server required?

So it’s like 2000 quid for this? OK this isn’t for me, what’s the cheapest alternative?

[@programmingelectronics]

Lot's of affordable options for non-commercial use... If you get an Arduino Zero, that's all you need as far as hardware in additional to the Segger debug software (which is free for non-commercial use). If you get an JLINK edu mini, it's like ~$50, then you can use that with any Arduino board (or whatever) that has a debug port.

@@programmingelectronics ah, so the Arduino Zero has an embedded debugger. I'd totally missed that when I was looking, thanks 😸 The JLINK looks like it's more in my poverty bracket too 👍

Not for beginners like me.
