gDEBugger, by graphicRemedy, was a very powerful standalone tool (still available in here) for debugging OpenGL and OpenCL. It could tell you all about your VBOs, textures, uniform values, show stats on function calls, show deprecated usage function, you name it.
Now its back! This time it works inside Visual Studio 2010. It basically performs the same functions as before, but integrated in the programming environment of VS 2010.
The new AMD version is available in here.
