Who Should Use This Book

This guide is aimed at application developers who want to debug applications developed for ChorusOS operating systems. While this guide provides an overview of the GDB debugger, it assumes that you are familiar with application debuggers and the concepts related to them. This book does not provide a comprehensive guide to using GDB. Rather, it describes the customizations to GDB that are specific to embedded operating systems and to the ChorusOS operating system in general.
