Tiivistelmä
This thesis introduces a debugging utility named Mobile Crash on Symbian OS. Mobile Crash is able to trap Symbian OS program panics and processor exceptions. It further collects program data and processor state that may help to solve the trapped failure, and sends the collected data for analysis. The thesis presents the background knowledge of embedded system development and Symbian OS to help the reader to understand the main topic. The thesis also discusses other ways to do debugging on Symbian OS, which include using emulator and tracing application execution. In addition, the thesis compares different debugging methods and gives general guidelines for applying these methods on Symbian OS development.
