[Omp] Good OpenMP Debuggers?

[Terboven, Christian]

Hi Michael.


> Or am I just too stupid to use them correctly??
I don't think so. Debugging OpenMP codes can be hard, because you have
  * to use the right compiler options,
  * to use the right operating system kernel version,
  * to use the right debugger, library, whatever ... patch level.

Which programming language are you talking about, I assume C?
While working with C and C++ I was quite successfull with Totalview and
Sun Studio. If you like, I can help you to get started with these two
debuggers on our systems, or maybe try to help you to get a similar
environment on your systems regarding the prerequisites for a nice
debugging experience as described above.


> Have I missed any good ones?
Have you tried Visual Studio 2005? It works ...



Best regards,
Christian
