Debugging Method Using HDT+Slicing in Java Programs

초록

The debugging, locating the logical errors in Java programs, is to be difficult task. In the previous work, we presented the HDT, which combines an algorithmic debugging technique with a step-wise debugging technique for the efficient debugging in Java programs. But, HDT, still, increases the number of the interaction because the recent programs are big size of program than the past programs and the number of function/method is increasing. In this paper, we propose a method to use slicing at the HDT. When a user debugs a Java program with HDT, slicing can reduce the number of debugger systems's question. The importance of this paradigm is the attempt for automation debugging that locates logical errors in Java programs.
