I am using GCC for a project of mine and need to know how to use the
Gnu debugger gdb. I'm using the version of GCC whose binaries are
on atari.archive. I tried the -gg option but that didn't seem to
work. Any help would be appreciated.

I think it's quite difficult to run gdb because gdb asumes that the interface to the debugged programm is via ptrace call's that are UNIX special calls for debug processes. 2. I am not shure if there is a version of gdb which uses relocation information stored in each TOS executable. you will have to rewrite GDB in some parts if no one did this already ?? * would be a nice job And some problems with gcc-ld 3. you will need a quite different loader ( gcc-ld ) to build symbol tables with source level debug information 4. the option -gg is just a special case for GNU -g will also work to produce source-level debug info's but remember the loader i know does not support the extended debug information. does any one know if i am wrong ???

I don't think it works with the current version of gcc though. 'sswhat you get when your vendor doesn't set a standard way to do certain things; a bunch of different people take different approaches to solve the problems... Now that I've started playing with Mint a little bit, I'm beginning to think about trying to build everything else around it. Question is what to attack first. Gulam is the most useful shell to me, so I guess I want that working with job control, but there's something to be said for a Unix-ish shell (like Bash) being available. I was really thrilled to see MGR running on my ST. This is really exciting stuff going on here... -- -- Howard Chu @ University of Michigan one million data bits stored on a chip, one million bits per chip if one of those data bits happens to flip, one million data bits stored on the chip...

There's a korn shell clone (still under construction I beleive) at cs.uni-sb.de int the pub/atari/tools directory called ksh.zoo. It has full sources and will compile under gcc or MWC. anyone want to do a MiNT port? :-) -- Todd +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Todd Miller - millert@tramp.Colorado.EDU | | Meet the new boss, just the same as old boss - The Who | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
