GDB caused segmentation fault when stepping into C++ code in shared library

[Patrick Zou]

Hi, 

I have some C++ code in shared library, I used set solib-absoluate-prefix and loaded in those libs at the point where I need to exam the source codes. When I stepped into those codes, (the first one is new an object), GDB complained segmentation fault. The code runs OK without gdb though.

Stepping into C++ in current exe is OK.  

I even set a breakpoint in the shared library, but not hit either. Wondering the lib is not mapped correctly. Some of you must have made this work, I believe. Any idea? is the way I compile my codes or some GDB configuration ?

I am using gdb6.3 to remotely debug an embedded system on Arm. 


thanks
patrick

Sorry, there is not enough information here to help you.  A testcase
would be nice; failing that, we will need at least a full transcript
of the session.
