New Release - Arduino Debugger
The Arduino Debugger has taken another step forward. Previously the debugger provided trace/break/step and graphical visualizations. The latest release allows the update of variables and registers while an Arduino is running. Variables can be updated while the Arduino is running normally (in debug) or during a debug break (pause) event.

For this example we show a really pointless (and rubbish) arduino program in debug mode. The message trace has been frozen at a point that makes best reading. The entire arduino program code is shown, You can see that the values of variables are defined to be different to the current values shown in the expression watch window. The serial window shows confirmation that the changes to variable values were succesfully accepted by the Arduino. The variables with a yellow background color are read/write.
