QUAD-FAT SUPERDEBUGGER 3.8 WITH NEW FEATURES AND PRICING AVAILABLE
Long Island City, New York - March 15, 1995 - Impact Software
Publishing, Inc. today announced the availability of a new Quad-FAT
version 3.8 of its SuperDebugger(tm) product, a program which helps
reduce application development time by providing a more powerful,
easy-to-use, and faster debugging environment.
SuperDebugger, which began shipping in June, 1993, is compiled
Quad-FAT and will run on HP PA-RISC, SPARC, Intel, and NeXT hardware.
Version 3.8 contains the following new features and improvements:
1. The problem of communicating with the updated version of
gdb in NEXTSTEP Developer 3.3 has been fixed.
2. The ability to set customized actions for the right mouse click
using the Preferences panel has been added.
3. A new SuperDB program has been provided to easily open a program
for debugging from the ProjectBuilder.
4. Modifications were made so that Rich Text Format files with
colored comments could be edited in the Source window.
5. Help documentation has been updated and improved, with a Power
Tips, Tutorial, and Troubleshooting sections added.
6. The license panel has been enhanced so that payment information
for orders will be automatically encrypted using an advanced
time-variant probabilistic encryption with a unique identification
stamp. (This encryption is more advanced than public key encryption,
and is even more secure.)
SuperDebugger is available direct from Impact Software and through
authorized NEXTSTEP resellers. Information about quantity discounts
and site-licenses can be obtained by contacting Impact Software directly.
SuperDebugger 3.8 simplifies debugging by providing an intuitive
graphical interface with many enhancements and features to save time.
It features dynamic display of source-level execution, point and
click setting of breakpoints, savable debugging environments,
user-definable macros, a variable contents display, a dynamic local
variables browser, a methods browser, a breakpoints browser, and much
more. (The dynamic local variables browser gives users the ability
to easily inspect and trace dynamic variables.)
SuperDebugger 3.8 also features a simple interface for setting
conditional breakpoints, and enhancements such as the ability to
bring up a header file by double-clicking on a source class in the
methods browser. SuperDebugger 3.8 is very easy to use, and
includes an extensive help facility with illustrated instructions
on how to use each program feature. SuperDebugger 3.8 can also be
easily set as the ProjectBuilder's default debugger so that it
starts up automatically when the "Debug" button is pressed in the
ProjectBuilder.
Current registered licensees of SuperDebugger are entitled to a free
upgrade to SuperDebugger 3.8. (SuperDebugger 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, and 3.8
all use the same set of license keys.)
