Hi, even if I am simple mortal I would like to understand or at least follow what is going on with gcc. Generally when I run gdb and try to breakpoint inside a function I get a undefined symbol or something like that. I suppose this is because gcc is not a simple static exe but depends on other binaries (g++, cpp, ...). So my question is how can I debug step by step gcc ? Let's say for instance I want to breakpoint the function init_exception_processing located in gcc/gcc/cp and related to c++ exceptions
This GDB was configured as "i486-linux-gnu"... (gdb) b init_exception_processing Function "init_exception_processing" not defined. Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) What is the magical trick to be able to follow what is going on. Thanks
