Can you suggest a good Debugger which supports tasking analysis ?

What Ada compiler are you using?

There is a nice GUI version of GDB that comes with that compiler. I haven't had
occasion to try it with a tasking program yet though.

If you don't like that one, I'd check out GVD 
( http://libre.act-europe.fr/gvd/ , but I can't get there right now for some
reason. I hope its up.) I haven't had a chance to try it out, but supposedly
tasking/thread debugging support is one of its main features.

Just to clarify, both GVD and the Tk-based GUI that comes with GNAT
are front ends for the Gnu Debugger, which is called gdb. It seems the
Tk-based GUI is also called 'gdb'; another ambiguity.

It it gdb that provides the support for tasking; the GUI front ends
make it either easier or harder to use. I use Emacs as a gdb front
end, so I can't comment on the GUI tools.
