Requirement: To use Sun's dbx debugger on a program compiled with g++.

Reason: Because dbx provides essential runtime pointer checking facilities
which gdb doesn't provide.

System: Sun Sparcstation, gcc 2.7.0, SunOS 5.4 (Solaris)


I compile the program as follows:

gcc -g test.cc -lg++

In place of -g I have also tried all the others: -gstabs, etc.

But when I run the executable with dbx, dbx doesn't find any debug info.


Please tell me there's a way to do this!
