Hello all,
About 2 years ago I send a problem report regarding the problems with DEC-OSF and the
g++ and the gdb or other debuggers. It is virtual impossible to debug a program that
uses C++ sources with the gdb. Once I received a patch for the gdb as a workaround. But
this patch does not work anymore. This might be both a gcc and a gdb issue.
The problem is that in some functions the parameter list is corrupted when shown by the
gdb. And that you can not step over functions with next. You always go into these functions
(again not all)
Once it was analysed that the gcc writes the function-start marker at the wrong position.
(As I recall there was one instruction that was must be skipped by the gdb )
Bye,
Aurel.
