If I'm stepping through main() in GDB, when I step past pthread_create() should the associated (newly created) thread begin executing independently of main() (i.e., the "main" thread)? Executing independently in the background?
Red Hat's GDB documentation says: "In all-stop mode, whenever your program stops under gdb for any reason, all threads of execution stop, not just the current thread. This allows you to examine the overall state of the program, including switching between threads, without worrying that things may change underfoot. " I assume "all-stop mode" is the default? ---Jan -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
