Debugging Scientific Applications in the .NET Framework

Overview The Microsoft .NET Framework represents a major advance over previous runtime environments available for Windows platforms and offers a number of architectural features that would be of value in scientific programs. However there are such major differences between.NET and legacy environments under both Windows and Unix, that the effort of migrating software is substantial. Accordingly, software migration is unlikely to occur unless tools are developed for supporting this process. This paper discusses a 'Relative Debugger' called Guard which provides powerful support for debugging programs as they are ported from one environment or platform to another. The authors describe a prototype implementation developed for Microsoft's Visual Studio.NET - a rich interactive environment that supports code development for the .NET Framework.
