Thinking ahead on debugging....
Posted: Wed Aug 26, 2009 10:27 pm
Hi all,
I'm beginning work on my second DS project. This time through, I am hoping to avoid some of the debug headaches I ran into the first time, so I've been looking into methods for gathering data on crashes/hangs.
Anyway, I have two questions:
First, I'm using the default exception handler, and am successfully getting a guru meditation screen on crash. However, it always gives 0x0 as the address, which I know isn't valid. Is there a known cause for this?
Second, are there any other nifty techniques for getting more information on crash? I don't have the full version of nocash, and it seems like I never will. Also, I can print error codes with my asserts to debug console, but you can only use so many asserts. : )
Any help is greatly appreciated!
