Design and Implementation of Time Travel Debuggers - Lecture

Dive deep into the design and implementation of time travel debuggers in this comprehensive conference talk from C++Now. Explore the inner workings of powerful debugging tools like rr, Microsoft's TTD, and Undo.io, which provide programmers with an infinitely detailed view of program execution. Learn about the low-level interactions with CPUs, operating systems, and the C++ language that make these seemingly magical tools possible. Discover how time travel debuggers can help tackle complex C++ bugs with surprisingly low runtime and memory overheads. Gain insights into the common traits and important differences between leading time travel debugger implementations, and understand their relevance for debugging in C++, a language that allows for many types of bugs impossible in safer languages.
