Hi,
I have several questions about gdb.
1. Why do I sometimes get plagued with "signal 5 Trace/BPT
trap" when trying to continue from a breakpoint?
2. Does anyone have a port of gdb to the DECStation 3100 (mips
chip)?
3. Can gdb be made to print out structs one elt per line
showing nested struct with indentation like dbx? Can
someone point me at the routine to hack if I need to do
this myself?
4. Why do I sometimes but not always get the message "no
memory for string constant" when doing something like
set fp = fopen("foo.out","w")?
5. Why do I sometimes get the message "virtual memory
exhausted"?
6. Why does the expression print func(arg,arg,arg) not always
produce the same value when called several times in a row?
Somtimes I have to say p ualarm(0,0) 4 or 5 times before it
works?
*. All questions relate to gdb 3.1.2 on a Sun 3/60 running
SunOS 3.4.
*. TIA!
