hi there, I just installed gdb and gcc on my sun4 running os4 and I'm trying to debug some fortran code which calls C routines for sunview interfacing. Unfortunately, it seems that gdb doesn't know what is going on with Fortran (not suprising, I don't either). Whenever I try to reference a symbol which was defined in the fortran, it says: "Invalid symbol data: unknown symbol-type code `X' at symtab pos 13." (here's an example yanked out of a gdb run...) sun.ipl.rpi.edu% gdb example GDB 3.1.2, Copyright (C) 1988 Free Software Foundation, Inc. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY for GDB; type "info warranty" for details. GDB is free software and you are welcome to distribute copies of it under certain conditions; type "info copying" to see the conditions. Reading symbol data from /home/rodney/suns/pc/icsdist/example...done. Type "help" for a list of commands. (gdb) break init Invalid symbol data: unknown symbol-type code `X' at symtab pos 13. (gdb) My inexperienced guess is that the symbol-type code `X' is used in fortran type programs. Am I right? Has anyone written stuff to make GDB work with fortran? (I'm using 3.1.2) -- Rodney
