Telesoft was one of the first commercial developers of the
language Ada, for a large number of platforms. Telesoft
wanted a source level debugger for use on programs without
recompilation, easily portable between host and target
system pairs. Using an object-oriented approach we designed
a highly retargetable host/target debugger architecture and
lead the development effort, managing teams in the US and Sweden,
handling all aspects of specification, production, project management,
and customer presentations. The project broke new ground in
the techniques for and development of source-level
debuggers. It proved portable in less than 2 months to
system as diverse as Sun SPARC and other Unixs, Cray 2 and
X-MP, MIPS and Motorola based systems, and others.
We also had primary technical
responsibility for compiler port and development of automated
testing system for two of the first handful of Ada validations
(Sun and AT&T Unix) and co-managed a 24/7 six person testing team.
