First I would like to thank all those that responded to my posting. As I had mentioned in my posting, I had no clear example to show the problem and was not actually reporting a confirmed problem, but trying to see if anyone else had seen a similar problem. I am sorry if this point was misundertood. We have since done some more tests and cannot repeat the problem. I suspect it may have been due to using a mixture of GCC and Sun cc compiled code along with some possible compilation errors. DbxTool now seems to be working fine on code compiled completely with GCC. Several of you suggested switching to GDB in place of dbx. I personally will use either one of these and I especially find the use of GDB in Emacs very handy from home where I don't have a nice windowing environment. However, my users are rather reluctant to move to different tools, especially if they don't provide the same type of interface. So to help me out and promote the use of GDB, could someone provide me with information about SunView or X Windows interfaces for GDB with similar functionality to DbxTool. I seem to remember seeing an interface some time ago, but it was rather crude and had problems. That was when I learned to use the Emacs interface. Again, thanks for the help. -- Alan Bair SSDT Logic Synthesis, Motorola, Inc. Simulation & Test Austin, Texas abair@ssdt-oakhill.sps.mot.com
