Live Free or Die Hard

Yesterday, I watched Bruce Willis's new movie Live Free or Die Hard - which was really excellent :-)

This was one of the movies I really wanted to watch in the original version and also without any subtitles. The premier in Luxemburg is on July 4th and they also have these annoying subtitles, so I decided to drive to Düsseldorf and watch it there - a 300km drive from where I live, but it was really worth it.

One year and one day ...

... have passed since I blogged last time.

That's really a very long time and a lot of things have happened in the meantime. Since about November, I'm back hacking on the debugger full-time and there some exciting news about it.

On May 9th, I released version 0.50 "Dublin" of the Mono Debugger. This is the latest stable version and also a milestone. It's one of the best releases ever and I'm really happy about it.

After that, I started some really large code cleanups and rewrites on a separate debugger-dublin branch. I had several goals with this project:

  • Support multiple appdomains
  • Rework the breakpoint code so we don't need to stop in Main() and we can also support static .cctors
  • Don't change the application's flow of execution as much as we're doing at the moment.

I'm now about one week away from implementing full multi-appdomain support, so I think I'll wait until that is done before merging my code back. I've posted a very detailed summary of my latest changes to our internal mailing list, which is also available in SVN.
