what version of gdb? when apple applied this patch to gcc http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-03/msg01515.html they never bothered to update gdb to recognize the DW_LANG_ObjC, this should have been fixed in gdb 6.8 released 4 years ago, but I still often see backtraces on this list where this bug is apparent. probably because the bug was introduced before the switch to gplv3 and fixed after. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep
