Recreating timing issues during program debug

摘要

A method for debugging a program having a plurality of threads includes identifying, for each thread, a target point at which the program terminated and a staging point previously executed in the thread. The method further includes executing each thread from the staging point to the target point and determining, for each thread, a staging time based upon the executing of each thread from the staging point to the target point. The method further includes executing each thread from its staging point based on the staging time of the thread so that the plurality of threads will reach the crash location at approximately the same time such that the program threads execute in a similar pattern to the execution that caused the crash.
