Collecting application state in a runtime environment for reversible debugging

Abstract:

Collecting runtime virtual machine external state for an application running in an application runtime virtual machine, for use in emulation of the application. A method includes identifying application bytecode for which runtime virtual machine external state is to be collected. The method further includes executing machine code generated from the bytecode to generate the runtime virtual machine external state. The method further includes collecting the runtime virtual machine external state. The method further includes storing the runtime virtual machine external state for use in emulating the application.
