English Amiga Board - View Single Post - UAE debugger updates (executable debugging, segment tracking, symbols and more)

Quick new feature: break to debugger when debugged task causes any unexpected exception. Uses tc_TrapCode so if debugged program also sets it, it should properly call old handler if program's own handler gets unexpected exception.

Note: currently debugger breaks to internal uaedbg trap code routine. You need to manually trace few following instructions to get back to user code. EDIT: Fixed, now it automatically executes out of exception routine and then breaks to debugger.

Also note that it automatically adjusts stack and returns to following instruction even if 68k documentation says it should have returned to instruction that caused the exception.
