Etnus releases beta version of TotalView Debugger for Intel Mac OS X

Etnus LLC has begun beta testing Version 7.3 of TotalView, the industry standard for debugging multiprocess and multithreaded HPC programs on Mac OS X, Linux, and UNIX. This latest version of TotalView adds full support for the new Intel Core Duo-based product line from Apple – including MacBook, iMac, and Mac mini – as well as Solaris-Opteron. The TotalView memory debugger is now available on all of these platforms as well as Power Mac. It lets programmers interactively locate problems that otherwise would be found with difficulty using post-mortem dumps. “Developers want to continue to use tools with which they are familiar,” comments Scott Tate, Vice President of Marketing of Etnus. “Now that TotalView runs on Intel-based Macs and Solaris-Opteron, developers can use a proven tool to help port their applications to these environments”. Information on registering for this beta test is located on the Etnus home page.
