On October, 7th, we have the honor to welcome Bob Steagall to our user group. Bob has been working primarily in C++ since discovering the second edition of The C++ Programming Language in a college bookstore in 1992. The majority of his career has been spent in medical imaging, where he led teams building clinically-approved applications for functional MRI and CT-based cardiac visualization. After a brief detour through the worlds of DNS and analytics, he now works in the area of distributed stream processing. He is a voting member of the C++ Standardization Committee, with special interest in numerics and language evolution. He holds BS and MS degrees in Physics, is an avid cyclist when weather permits, and lives in fear of the family cats.

Abstract: Finding and correcting defects in our code (i.e., bugs) is often a time-consuming, tedious, and challenging task. As the size and complexity of our code grows, it can feel like the corresponding difficulty in finding and understanding defects is growing exponentially. And yet, defects continue to occur, and we must continue to fix them.

This talk will look at what debugging is, the role of debugging in our development processes, and a few of the many challenges associated with debugging. We'll look at the kinds of defects that debugging can address, and examine several strategies, tools, and tips for tracking them down. Finally, we'll provide some guidance for what to do after you've found the problem.

If you've ever faced a challenging bug, and wished for a more complete set of tools for finding it, then you may find this talk helpful. I hope to provide a basic set of debugging tips, tools, and tricks that you can immediately apply to your own daily work.
