RE: FW: gstack

[Bloch, Jack (SNL US)]

Perhaps I was not clear. Is there a way in GDB to display the signal
which hit the program being attached to?

I expected that the thread apply all bt full would display parameters
but the target binary has no debug symbols although I would have thought
that the values would still be displayed

Ask whoever you got gstack from?  It's not part of GNU GDB releases; I
assume it's just a wrapper script calling GDB.

Hmm, I don't think there is.  On a lot of systems there's no way to
tell.  If you know inside the application, you could save it in a
global and have GDB print it - it's possible to get that to work
even if you do not have debug symbols.

No, we can't display arguments without knowing their types, so we need
debug info.

I am using gstack which is invoked whenever my applicaton gets a signal.
I have added the full option to the thread apply all bt statement in the
gstack script, but I want to have the signal displaywed in the gstack
output. is there any way to make this happen
