Subject: how does GDB find the symbols?
Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2002 18:28:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <011f01c23444$1de51c90$9a0a0109@zhangl> (raw)

Hi,

I'm converting a coredump into the ELF format. At first, the outputs in GDB
came out blank, i.e.
#0 0x40091aa5 in ?? ()


But after I added some other infomation, now I get the symbols filled in.
i.e.

#0 0x40091aa5 in sigset (sig=-1073747472, disp=0x20) at
    ../sysdeps/posix/sigset.c:69

Where does GDB find the function names, the arg lists, and other such
information?

Thanks,
Lucy
