  • One technique that has some overlap with the use case of is reverse debugging: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1470434/how-does-reverse-debugging-work/53063242#53063242 While Mozilla rr cannot save and restore a snapshot to disk, it does save every non-deterministic event to disk, and guarantees that every execution will be the exact same, so if you can reach the execution point again, you're fine. – Ciro Santilli OurBigBook.com Dec 24 '19 at 17:18

I think you want to use checkpoint

  • this doesn't work,I can't save the checkpoint to an external file,so I can't continue debugging another day. – cpuer Jun 08 '11 at 01:23
