Look at atree. http://atree.sourceforge.net It could give you the complete activation tree. Its some scripting on top of gdb . atree runs a program through GDB. It sets breakpoints on all functions and makes a log of all the functions that got called. The log contains the arguments and return values of the functions. This log is then turned into a tree — a node in the tree is a function call and its children are the functions that it called, in order. cheers Ramana On Thu, 2005-10-27 at 10:52 +0800, ZengNan wrote: > Can gdb give the whole call stack from the beginning to the termination of the target program, so > I can see the flow of the algorithm. > > > > > > > ___________________________________________________________ > 雅虎免费G邮箱－中国第一绝无垃圾邮件骚扰超大邮箱 > http://cn.mail.yahoo.com
