American Arium: debugging support for AMD64 architecture

American Arium announced support for AMD64 processor technology with the upcoming release of its debugging software, SourcePoint 7.0. AMD support includes the Opteron and Athlon 64 family of processors. A combination of SourcePoint 7.0 with the company's ECM-50 emulator not only supports the AMD processors but also the complete Intel Pentium family of processors and Intel 32- to 64-bit extensions. New features include hot plugging, improved target state management, support for Intel's EFI framework, and optional IDE.

SourcePoint 7.0 offers feature-rich, state-of-the-art debug functionality in an intuitive, user-friendly environment. Users get extensive run control and real time, integrated execution trace, giving them unsurpassed visibility to and manipulation of code via a series of intuitive screens and dialogs with numerous viewing and customization options. SourcePoint works with today's most popular compiler tool chains. It supports industry-standard input file formats and includes a robust C-like command language. Arium's SourcePoint IDE, which works hand-in-glove with SourcePoint 7.0, lets the user edit code "on-the-fly". The designer can go back and forth in the debugger and editor with ease, making simple changes less time consuming and larger changes easier to debug. SourcePoint IDE is an optional feature and ships under a separate license with the SourcePoint CD.
