Hello,
I have a problem with the global static variables in gdb.

For a C program as below

static int Data = 9;

int Func1(void)
{
	return Data;
}

if i compile this with debug info and run it under gdb, when i breakpoint on
the variable Data and try to print its value i get some value and 
if i look at the address
p /x Data
i get some invalid address.

Can anyone please help me with this

Thanks Kiran.
