Re: no symtab found (ddd, AIX, xlC, gcc)

Arnaud,

We put dbx on the AIX5.2 box. when I invoke ddd --dbx
./a.out, I can get ddd up. I am still trying to find
the documentation about how to setup .dbxrc and
.dbxinit file. Since right now dbx has trouble finding
.cpp file. Help is greate appreciated. Thanks

Regards

Kathy
