64bit on HPUX 11.0

64bit on HPUX 11.0

[Igor Schein]

Hi,

my config.guess returns hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00, however when I build
gdb-5.0 for this target, I can't debug 64bit ELF binaries.  even
though the gdb binary itself is 64bit:

% file gdb/gdb
gdb/gdb:        ELF-64 executable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)

Is there anything I'm missing?

Thanks

Igor

 From memory, getting GDB for a HP/UX 64 bit environment involves some 
black magic.

Would someone be able to post the relevant magic (so that it can go into 
the 5.1 release notes)?  Hmm, checking it would probably also be a good 
idea - if it is broken documenting it as such would equally be a good idea.

I am not sure I understand all the issues here, but looking back at
the archives:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb/2000-04/msg00129.html

Maybe there is a need for a --host=hppa64-hp-hpux11.00 (or
--target=hppa64-hp-hpux11.00).

I think that is actually the case:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2000-06/msg00147.html
