Originally posted by: melaniejs Igor Todorovski, Jean Saad, and Francesco Cassullo introduce a test selection technique to reduce the number of test cases used for regression testing without degrading test coverage. It uses profile data from the function tracing feature (functrace) of the...
Originally posted by: melaniejs Debugging optimized code has always been a challenging task, because it could make the program state not available to debuggers. Optimization can change the sequence of operations, add or remove code, change variable data locations, and perform other...
Originally posted by: melaniejs Check out new exercises in the Power sandbox. You can find them here Experience new features available with the latest XL C/C++ compiler including introduction to C++11, the benefits of C++11, compiling with a list of options defined in a file, and...
Originally posted by: melaniejs The new ISO C programming language standard provides several features to aid in programming productivity, debugging, and performance. Rajan Bhakta explains which of these are already included in IBM XL compilers for easier debugging and improved...
