Unlike the previous engine specific debugging output which is present in all builds including releases, debugging the platform backend code requires procedure and tools specific to the platform.<br> | |||
It also generally requires a debug build (either compiled yourself or a nightly build from [http://buildbot.scummvm.org/builds.html here]) as release builds are generally stripped of debugging symbols | |||
for reason of binary size.<br> | |||
If the observed bug only occurs on certain platforms or is unstable to reproduce, it is likely that the engine debugging output will not be sufficient, even with the possibility of adding further | |||
debug output and recompiling.<br> | |||
The following hints are provided for how to do low level debugging on various platforms. | |||
