# Debugging Tools — BareFoot, wack, GDB Remote
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Debugging Amiga programs ranges from ROM-resident kernel debuggers (wack/SAD) through software monitors to modern cross-debugging via GDB stubs.
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Tool Comparison
|
|
|
|
| Tool | Type | Target | Best for |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| BareFoot | Serial debugger | Real hardware / UAE | OS-level, Exec kernel |
|
|
| wack/SAD | ROM debugger | Real hardware | Boot-time, crash analysis |
|
|
| MonAm | Software monitor | AmigaOS | Breakpoints, disassembly |
|
|
| IDA Pro | Static + remote | Cross-platform | Static RE, decompilation |
|
|
| GDB (m68k-elf-gdb) | Cross-debugger | FS-UAE / Basilisk | Source-level C debugging |
|
|
| Enforcer | Memory watchdog | AmigaOS (68020+) | Illegal memory access detection |
|
|
| MuForce | Memory watchdog | AmigaOS (68040+) | Same as Enforcer for 040/060 |
|

|
|
## Enforcer / MuForce
|
|
|
|
Detects invalid memory accesses using MMU:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Enforcer Hit! $0000000C read by task "myapp" at $00020456
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
; Install:
|
|
run >NIL: Enforcer
|
|
; or for 040/060:
|
|
run >NIL: MuForce
|
|
```
|

|
|
## FS-UAE GDB Debugging
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# In fs-uae.conf:
|
|
remote_debugger = 1
|
|
remote_debugger_port = 6860
|
|
|
|
# Connect from host:
|
|
m68k-elf-gdb myapp
|
|
(gdb) target remote localhost:6860
|
|
(gdb) break main
|
|
(gdb) continue
|
|
```
