Hi, I'm trying to use gdb to get a stack trace on a program that is dumping core without success. Is this a known problem or am I doing something wrong? The program is compiled with g++ using -g.
Here is the output from file and gdb: core: ELF 32-bit MSB core file, (signal 11), SPARC, version 1 (SYSV), from 'test' Script started on Tue Nov 27 20:05:45 2001 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/flt$ !gd gdb test core GNU gdb 5.0.90-cvs (MI_OUT) Copyright 2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
