GDB
The GNU Debugger (GDB) is a source-level debugger for C, C++, Java, Modula-2, and several other languages. It runs on GNU/Linux, the BSD's, and almost every major proprietary OS. GDB can debug programs running on the same machine as itself, or it can communicate over a network or serial line with a debugging stub on another machine; thus, it can be used for embedded and kernel debugging.

Changes: Support for debugging the Objective-C programming language has been integrated into GDB. A New backtrace mechanism was added, which includes DWARF 2 Call Frame Information.

All of GDB's targets have been updated to use the new internal architecture framework. The way is now open for future GDB releases to include cross-architecture native debugging support.
