Hi, a have couple of question to better understand the situation: - what is the system you are trying this out on (OS, arch, ...)? - are you using any funny compiler options that you think we should know about ? (e.g. if you're using -ffunction-sections -Wl,--gc-sections, then the function could have been removed even if the parts of the compile unit stay) - how exactly is your function declared? (e.g. if it's declared as inline, or a template and unused then the compiler might not bother emitting it) - could you verify (e.g. by running "objdump -t") that your function is indeed present in the resulting binary? cheers, pavel _______________________________________________ lldb-dev mailing list lldb-dev@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-dev
