BS is a modern debugger for Linux x86-64. Written in Rust for Rust programs.
Async Rust support – debug async code with new commands:
– async backtrace – inspect async task backtraces
– async task – view task details
– async stepover / async stepout – better control over async execution
Enhanced variable inspection:
– argd / vard – print variables and arguments using Debug trait
Other:
– new `call` Command – execute functions directly in the debugged program
– `trigger` Command – fine-grained control over breakpoints
– new project Website – better docs and resources
…and much more!

Been hoping someone would make this, looks great!
I guess I’m next hoping someone gets it working using jtag/swd debug probes for embedded targets :)

Best of luck with this project. I'm not even a rust dev but I came to say that I love this name

any Machine Interface planned (à la GDB/MI)?

BugStomper would have also been a great name choice. ;)

I’m surprised this isn’t getting more love. My experience with other debuggers with Rust was quite poor, I hope this one can fare much better. For example, I couldn’t call functions with previous debuggers

Does this have a machine interface mode like gdb/lldb? Asking because I like my debuggers to be integrated with my code editor of choice which is usually done via such an interface.
