Sorry I don't have anything better than otool -tvV, and otool -tv (sometimes the -V option replace numbers with symbols erroneously). Also, looking at the kprintf parameters (the last parameter push on the stack is the strings), you get a good idea of what is happening (darwin kernel prints meaningful error messages in case anything gets wrong). You can get the offset in the file for the string section using "otool - -l" IIRC, and then find the string using an hexadecimal editor (or simply hexdump) Best regards, Nicolas -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGHJWG01ajQnpJXgERAv2lAJ9K6vPx9lDaK0fv+sPdDRcZxc4hzACdGh1q gxL21DZCYuSY+EaDiHwUDhA= =o33k -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
