Re: Regarding gcc debugging


You probably have a corrupt heap, as the sigsegv arrives after main returned, the destructor is called, and apparently, after that destructor is returned. The reason is probably in some other place in your code.

Hi,
I am trying to debug a C++ program with gdb on Linux
AS 2.1. when the program terminates,the destructor is
called and this destructor in turn calls the
un-initializer routine.After the Un-inilization
routine is over it does not give core dump.But then it
goes in main and gives core dump.

***************source code starts***********

void SmAgentExample::Sm_UnInit( )
{
    int iResult;

    printf("Value of pSmApiHandle inside Sm_UnInit is
%x\n",pSmApiHandle);

if ( NULL != pSmApiHandle ) {

        Sm_Logout();
        //
        // UnInitialize the Agent API
        //
        // Return values:
        //      SM_AGENTAPI_SUCCESS
        //      SM_AGENTAPI_FAILURE
        //      SM_AGENTAPI_NOCONNECTION
        iResult = Sm_AgentApi_UnInit( &pSmApiHandle );
        if (SM_AGENTAPI_SUCCESS==iResult)
            printf (  "Agent Released\n" );
        else if (SM_AGENTAPI_FAILURE==iResult)
            printf ( "UnInitialzation Failed\n" );
        else if (SM_AGENTAPI_NOCONNECTION==iResult)
            printf ( "Timeout for server response!\n"
);
    }
        printf("I am here\n");
    login = 0;
}

SmAgentExample::~SmAgentExample()
{

    pSmApiHandle = NULL;
    printf("Inside destructor\n");
    Sm_AgentApi_FreeAttributes(iNumAttributes,
pAttributes);
    printf("Before Sm_UnInit function\n");
    Sm_UnInit( );
}

int main()
{
   .....
   .....
   while{
   switch(input)
   case 'q' :
          break;
  .......
   }
   a.Sm_UnInit( );
   printf ( "Done, thank you for Testing the API.\n"
);
   return 0;
}

Can anybody give any ptrs on this that why it is
dumping core. Thanks in advance.
