Overview
GDB, the GNU Project debugger, allows you to see what is going on `inside' another program while it executes -- or what another program was doing at the moment it crashed.
IBM Rational Software Analyzer is a software analysis tool that helps you review code, identify bugs and enforce code quality policy early in the software development lifecycle. Identifying and addressing defects before the software is released can help you avoid the high cost of fixing defects later. Rational Software Analyzer is built on an extensible framework and provides a mechanism for integration with other Rational and Jazz-based solutions, as well as with third-party tools.
