Abstract

A method of debugging a computer program across a mixed computing environment is provided. The method includes attaching a first debug module to a first program module of the computer program, where the first program module is operating on a first node; attaching a second debug module to a second program module of the computer program, where the second program module operating a second node of a different computer architecture; and initiating debug functions of at least one of the first debug module and the second debug module through a distant linker.
