You are right. The gdb comes with apple has '-arch' option, but gdb 7.0 does not. $ /usr/bin/gdb --help --translate Debug applications running under translation. -arch i386|armv6|x86_64|ppc Specify a gdb targetting a specific architecture So should I do what Joel Brobecker suggested in adding that option in gdb/main.c? Thank you. On Wed, Oct 7, 2009 at 11:31 AM, Michael Snyder wrote: > n179911 wrote: >> >> Hi, >> >> I have compiled gdb 7.0 on Mac OS X.
