Hi, I am trying to compile VCL module with symbols with intention of debugging soffice binary with gdb and trace the code flow, specifically in VCL layer; so as to understand initialization, plugin detection and the way write, calc and impress interact with VCL.
I have tried steps outlined at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Debugging specifically, under vcl dir > build debug=true > deliver i tried to use Linkoo, to relink soffice binary, but it did not work out as expected (soffice binary time stamp didn't change). so i cleaned all unxlngi6.pro dir's and ran configure with additional option --enable-symbols, followed by dmake on root dir. however build was successful, i could see symbols in gdb, but soffice now crashes as soon as it is launched. gdb gives following [...] Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread -1214576944 (LWP 7229)] 0x00f79088 in cppu::_copyConstructAnyFromData (pDestAny=0xb6b9cc54, pSource=0xbfbc7898, pType=0xb6bca330, pTypeDescr=0x0, acquire=0x49d1a8 <com::sun::star::uno::cpp_acquire(void*)>, mapping=0x0) at /home/openoffice/OpenOffice-2.3.1/OOG680_m9/cppu/source/uno/copy.hxx:282 282 pDestAny->pData = ::rtl_allocateMemory( pTypeDescr->nSize ); [...] I believe I am missing a some steps here. Overall, I have following doubts:- 1. How to build specific modules with debug symbols and regenerate the soffice binary and any dependent modules. I understand linkoo has a role to play, but then how it is supposed to be used? 2. How to enable debug logs and printf's, particularly in VCL layer and applications such as writer, impress.
