<h2 class="chapter">14 Debugging Programs That Use Overlays</h2>
<a name="index-overlays"></a>

<p>If your program is too large to fit completely in your target system&rsquo;s
memory, you can sometimes use <em>overlays</em> to work around this
problem.  <small>GDB</small> provides some support for debugging programs that
use overlays.
