GSOC 2013 - Debugger Improvements

[Clara Allende]

Hi all! I'm Clara, I'm a 3rd year systems engineering student at National Technological Unniversity in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Currently I'm a Scala developer but I have programmed in VisualAge Smalltalk for IBM, and done (very) little contributions to the Pharo project, thanks to Guille Polito and some other fellows :)

What else? I have some experience programming in C, java, scala, haskell, prolog... dbs? SQL, mongodb... But in any case I'm a curious person and I like learning new stuff :)

So I'm eager to do some fun stuff with my dear Smalltalk, and I am particularly interested in working with the debugger :) 

I have completed my profile on GSOC page, but I wanted to introduce myself here too :D

Well, I think that's it for now.

Cheers!

like this one?

This is debugger for real. I see you have a wide range of experience , but
you miss working with machine code and low-level system programming :)

HAHAHA I have some sort of childhood traumas with C and low level system programming...

I like C, but I already have my fill :) (I have an assignment to develop a distributed system in C -  concurrency issues management, deadlock detection, memory management, that kind of stuff -  for a subject called Operating Systems). 

Maybe working in some real stuff could be interesting, but I don't know if I'm ready for that yet :P

I was thinking of this one

but try and convince me, Igor :)

It is much easier , i would say. Because you get exactly what you put in.
In C you often can be surprised by compiler & syntax.

It is up to you, of course. I am not mentor of that project, but i
found that you might be one
who can do it.
