I used to work with DDD on Sun Solaris 2.5.1 with both gdb and dbx ,
with the Sun compilers
I have upgraded my system with Solaris 2.8 and the Forte 6 compiler
suite
I also installed DDD 3.3 and gdb5.0
It turns out that DDD works apparently fine with dbx , supplied by Sun
, but not with gdb.
gdb does not seem to recognize properly the executable despite the
-xs compile flag.
when I load an executable I do get the following information in
the main DDD window ( instead of the actual code )
1 address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@
2 address@hidden@address@hiddenÅaddress@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,f
address@hidden@address@hidden@,address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,f"address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,f'address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,f(address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,f)address@hidden@address@hidden@address@hidden@^@,address@hidden@address@hidden@,f,address@hidden@
the only source code files available are the one compiled with former
compiler SC4.0 running on Solaris 2.6
does gdb works fine with the Sun compilers ( Forte 6) on Solaris
8
or am I missing some compilation options or flags, apart from
-xs
do you have any clue
thanks
