Debugging Tool for Arduino Code

[rgsparber]

I have been doing way too much Arduino software debugging lately. Such pain drives invention. Here is a macro I developed that makes adding print statements painless. The Arduino sends out the text associated with the print to the Serial Monitor which it can be analyzed for bugs.

If you are interested, please see

Your comments are welcome. All of us are smarter than any one of us.



Thanks,

I am only starting to get into 'Arduino' after deciding to make my own CNC router and although fairly computer literate have not done any CNC coding so I'm sure this will be of benefit to me when I do finally get to that stage.
Long, slow process in between all other 'life chores'.
Thanks,

If you have read this article, please give it another look. Dave Kellogg came up with a much better way to do this.

rgsparber, a link to Dave Kellogg's method would be appreciated.

Dave never published it but I built on his work as detailed in the article.
