Currently, the next generation UI is supported on Linux x86 64-bit, Linux PowerLE, Linux ARM64, and Apple’s macOS/Mac OS X platforms. It supports multi-process and multi-threaded debugging as well as a level of parallel, MPI and CUDA debugging. Functionality not yet present in the UI is available through the command line interface (CLI). Please send email to tv-beta@roguewave.com with your feedback and feature priorities. We welcome all feedback and feature requests for the new user interface!

Performance for the ReplayEngine GoBack operation has been substantially improved. The magnitude of the improvement depends on the nature of the program being debugged, but at least a 10X factor has been measured when running a process backward until it hits either an action point or the beginning of recorded Replay history.

This release enables debugging support on NVIDIA’s new Tesla P100 GPU featuring its Pascal GPU architecture.
