To: Jim Blandy Cc: gdb@sources.redhat.com In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-SW-Source: 2002-08/txt/msg00223.txt.bz2 Hi Jim Thanks for responding. When I run powerpc-linux-readelf -w I get the following error: Could not locate entry for abbrev number 105. But today I found out that I can add the object files separately in the gdb. If a.o and b.o are object files and x.o is the loadable module then I am able to do: add-symbol-file a.o add-symbol-file b.o where offset : starting addr of the first function in b.o file. --- Jim Blandy wrote: > > kas turi writes: > > When I run the above command in GDB I get the > > following error: > > Dwarf Error: Could not find abbrev number 116. > > This ostensibly means that the debug info in your > executable file is > corrupted.
