コードを記述しているときは常に、バグを混入させ生成してしまっているものです。一般的にプログラミングのバグは、エラーを引き起こし、ハッキングを可能にする抜け道を作ってしまう恐れのある、プログラム内の予期しない意図しない動作として説明されます。最近開催された Coding Boot Camp 2022では、プレゼンターのJim Mckeethがデバッグの重要な役割について、 Windowsプログラム開発 だけでなく、macOSやLinuxマシン、AndroidやiOSといったモバイルプラットフォームなど他のプラットフォームについても、掘り下げて解説しています。このセッションは、バグやさまざまなエラーの処理方法、例外処理やコール スタックなどのさまざまなメカニズムの使用方法を理解するのに役立ちます。
How to find, fix, and remove bugs via Debugging?
History-wise, bugs have been around since the 1940s, during the period where Electromechanical and electromagnetic computers are the only computer machines to ever exist. Debugging in programming and engineering is a multistep process that involves identifying a problem, isolating the source of the problem, and then either correcting the problem or determining a way to work around it. In software development, the debugging process begins when a developer locates a code error in a computer program and is able to reproduce it. This process has become an integral part of the entire software development.
このビデオでは、 Jim Mckeeth will walk us through the process of debugging a program in Delphi and will provide multiple scenarios and how to deal with them. He will also introduce us to the CodeSite Logging System which gives developers deeper insight into how their code is executing. This also enables them to locate problems more quickly and monitor how well their code is performing. The session also highlights the use of the Call Stack mechanism, a list of all the active functions that have been called to get to the current point of execution. Another mechanism that we will learn from this video is Exception Handling, a powerful mechanism to handle runtime errors so that the normal flow of the application can be maintained.
