TECHNIQUES FOR DEBUGGING CODE DURING RUNTIME

A technique for debugging code during runtime includes providing, from an outside process, a trigger to a daemon. In this case, the trigger is associated with a registered callback function. The trigger is then provided, from the daemon, to one or more designated tasks of a job. The registered callback function (that is associated with the trigger) is then executed by the one or more designated tasks. Execution results of the executed registered callback function are then returned (from the one or more designated tasks) to the daemon.
