raddebugger

Project Overview

The RAD Debugger is a native, user-mode, multi-process, graphical debugger. It currently only supports local-machine Windows x64 debugging with PDBs, with plans to expand to native Linux debugging and DWARF debug info in the future.

Key Features

• Native user-mode multi-process graphical debugging
• Local Windows x64 debugging with PDB support
• RAD Debug Info (RDI) custom debug information format
• RAD Linker: A high-performance linker optimized for generating huge executables, up to 50% faster link times

Target Audience

• C/C++ developers on Windows platforms
• Game developers and systems programmers who need to debug large projects

Quick Start

1. Download pre-built release binaries from GitHub Releases
2. Refer to the debugger's bundled README for usage instructions
3. When submitting issues, attach dump files, reproduction steps, and other relevant information
