was compiled with -g?

(e.g. "whereis -a" in dbx). A useful community project would be CTF extensions or pluggable libraries for Sun and GNU tools to provide access to line number data from the various compilers. -Mike -- Mike Shapiro, Solaris Kernel Development. blogs.sun.com/mws/

I can help to write a proposal, but I don''t understand the dtrace code well enough - if the dtrace developers can help as the project goes along, we may end up with something useful by summer end!! http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/summerofcode/2007-March/date.html Rayson> > -Mike > > -- > Mike Shapiro, Solaris Kernel Development. blogs.sun.com/mws/ > _______________________________________________ > dtrace-discuss mailing list > dtrace-discuss at opensolaris.org >
