# The devel/ddd port

## ddd-3.3.12p11 – Data Display Debugger, graphical front-end for GDB, etc

## Description

    What is DDD, anyway?
    ====================

        The Data Display Debugger (DDD) is a common graphical user
        interface to GDB, DBX, and XDB, the popular UNIX debuggers.
        Besides ``usual'' features such as viewing source texts and
        breakpoints, DDD provides a graphical data display, where data
        structures are displayed as graphs.  A simple mouse click
        dereferences pointers or reveals structure contents, updated each
        time the program stops.  Using DDD, you can reason about your
        application by viewing its data, not just by viewing it execute
        lines of source code.

        Other DDD features include: debugging of programs written in C,
        C++, Ada, Fortran, Pascal, Modula-2, or Modula-3; machine-level
        debugging; hypertext source navigation and lookup; breakpoint,
        backtrace, and history editors; preferences and settings editors;
        program execution in terminal emulator window; debugging on remote
        host; on-line manual; interactive help on the Motif user
        interface; GDB/DBX/XDB command-line interface with full editing,
        history, and completion capabilities.  DDD has been designed to
        compete with well-known commercial debuggers.
