You might research gdb fb command (future-break.) It allows you to set a breakpoint in code that is not loaded when the debugger is started. I believe you would have to use the debugger console not the GUI with a syntax like "fb rgl.so:function_name".

But it is loaded when I want to set the breakpoint. I can see the source file, set a breakpoint in it, but it doesn't work. I opened the gdb console (thanks for the suggestion), and I see warnings like

Warning - No location found for "x11gui.cpp:300"

when I try to set a breakpoint in rgl. How do I tell it where to find the location corresponding to that file?

I'd like to use Xcode to debug the rgl package, which is crashing sometimes in X11 on OSX. In the past, I've done this for debugging R itself, and have a project set up for that. I can attach to the process ID, and then I see rgl.so is loaded, but I can't see how to set a breakpoint in the rgl.so code.

Has anyone else done this before? Can you point me to step-by-step instructions?
