Demystifying Rust Debugging

November 03 2025 - 15:15 (45 min )

Debugging Rust code can feel like navigating uncharted waters — especially when the tools were originally built for C and C++. In this talk, we’ll explore the key components of the Rust debugging experience across platforms, from compiler-generated debug info (DWARF/PDB) to console-based and GUI-based debuggers like GDB, LLDB, VSCode/CodeLLDB, WinDBG, and RustRover. We’ll break down what goes into debug info, what gets lost in translation, and how that affects your ability to introspect values and types.

LEVEL: Intermediate
