Subject: guessing where address belongs to
Date: Tue, 04 Mar 2008 09:21:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f36b08ee0803040015q39111bf2t4b1e33ac75b97183@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I have large running app, and some address X, which is a valid pointer.
I'd like to find out what object it belongs to, at least approximately.

Is there command to have gdb guess which memory object this
address belongs to (which function ... which stack frame .. which static
object .. which head object )?

Thanks
Yakov
