GNU debugger. The
FSF's
source-level debugger for

C++ and other languages. Developed by
many people but most recently Fred Fish <fnf@cygnus.com>, Stu
Grossman <grossman@cygnus.com> and
John Gilmore

Cygnus Support. GDB fills the same
niche as
dbx. Programs must be compiled to include
debugging symbols.

most
Unix variants,
VMS,
VXWorks,
Amiga and
MS-DOS.
