This GDB was configured as "i686-pc-linux-gnu". =================================================================== I compiled my own code using the -gdwarf-2 and -g3 options (I've also tried a number of other similar -g options). When in the debugger I type: print *this when stopped in some class method I get: (gdb) print *this can't find class named `drv::FibreSliceDriver', as given by C++ RTTI I can print local variables in the functions, but no class members. I had seen some earlier (six or more months ago) postings about namespace problems with gdb. Some suggested that with dwarf-2 support this would work. Is there some way with the correct gcc or gdb version and/or with some needed option when compiling to make debugging classes within namespaces work correctly? Thanks for any clues on this! --John j.clinton@aristoslogic.com
