    		N/ATracealyzer® lets embedded software developers dive deep into the real-time behavior with the goal of speeding up debugging, optimizing performance and verifying software timing. Requiring no special hardware, Tracealyzer uses software instrumentation to record software event traces. This can be streamed to the host application views or kept in target RAM until requested. This is enabled by its trace recorder library, refined since 2009 and provided as open source. Tracealyzer…N/A

    • It's not always easy to include/integrate Tracealyzer in the OS build. It would be nice to have a simple install/plug n play method for our target.
    • Sometimes, the .bin files from Tracealyzer don't always work and we don't know why

    While we started using uCOSIII for our simpler microcontroller products, we also use QNX on more complex targets (full microprocessors) and it is a much more complex platform offering event tracing, memory tracing, and performance measures that are extremely good and integrated. More importantly these tools are fully integrated without any code changes. Tracealyzer is not integrated as much into uCOSIII like QNX's tools, debugger, etc. But, going thru the manual work of adding Tracealyzer to the build, it did help us get to a shippable product.

    • Positive: We were able to find some thread priority issues with Tracealyzer.
    • Positive: we were able to see timing of events in the sw/hw that we couldn't otherwise see.
