Hey everyone,
I’m trying to find a good debugger for Windows that’s similar to DDD (Data Display Debugger). I know DDD is popular on Linux, but I can’t seem to find a native Windows version. I’m not interested in using Cygwin or any other Unix-like environment on Windows.
Does anyone know of a Windows-friendly debugger that offers features like DDD? I’m looking for something with a nice graphical interface and good data visualization capabilities. It would be great if it could work well with GDB or have similar functionality.
Any suggestions or recommendations would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!
While DDD isn’t available natively on Windows, I’ve had success using Visual Studio’s debugger for similar purposes. It offers a robust GUI and excellent data visualization features. Another option worth considering is WinDbg, which is part of the Windows SDK. It’s powerful but has a steeper learning curve.
For those who prefer open-source alternatives, I’d recommend checking out Eclipse CDT’s debugger. It integrates well with GDB and provides a user-friendly interface with data visualization capabilities. Although not identical to DDD, these tools offer comparable functionality and should meet most debugging needs on Windows.
have u tried using x64dbg? it’s pretty cool for windows debugging. not exactly like DDD, but it’s got a nice interface and visualizes data well. plus it’s free and open-source! what kinda features are u looking for specifically? maybe we can brainstorm some other options that might work for ur needs?
