RE: Bug- DDD- Urgent Clarification Required

[Iyappan S- CTD, Chennai.]

Hi,

Are you using native gdb or target specific gdb ?  Try giving "info
registers" command in the gdb prompt.  If this works, then register window
should not get disabled (hopefully).

Good luck.

Hello,

I am Jayashree, employee of Infineon Technologies handling Tools and
Integration. I make use of the DDD.3.3.1 version of GNU Debugger on
SunOs, in order to debug my assembly code, unfortunately when I Run the
code I find all the sub windows of The registers gets disabled!!!

Can someone help me regarding this issue as we want this problem need to

After some trying i found out, that the linker problem originated from the
libs
for the XPM Package. Here they are installed in /opt/pd/lib/. SInce this
path
doesn't turn up in any of my environment variables (especially not in
LD_LIBRARY_PATH or PATH) i was surprised that configure even found the libs.
So
in the linker line '-L/opt/pd/lib -lxxx' showed up.
But this created the problem, because an older version of gcc is also
installed
under /opt/pd/(lib/bin). The new gcc-3.4 is installed in a completely
different
directory. Since i have the directories for new gcc-3.4 in my PATH and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables ddd was to be linked against the new libs (ldd
shows
this to be the case), but since the XPM libs were in a path where older gcc
libs live that seemed to throw the linker off.

So configuring with '--without-xpm' did the trick for me.

But i still find it odd that the configure even found the xpm libs.

Could this in part be a problem that the program i tried to debug is a
multithreaded application??

I'd love to but it'd take me quite a while to do something useful, since we
are
just now switching to gcc/gdb/ddd and i'm not really fit yet. If gdb-6.1
might
not work yet, which version gdb is (definitely) safe to use with ddd-3.3.8?

See acinclude.m4, function ICE_FIND_XPM. libxpm is found thanks to the
pattern "/opt/*/lib". Usually, gcc keeps its libraries isolated. It must be
a
very old version of gcc.

gdb 5.x works. If gdb 6.x is supported by ddd, your best bet is to create a
patch.

convert \
 -colors 32 \
 -fill '#838385' -draw 'rectangle 344,104 393,88' \
 -font helvetica-bold -fill '#fefefc' \
 -pointsize 20 -draw 'text 344,105 "v3.4"' \
 dddsplash.xpm d1.xpm

may do it (colors could be 'gray' and 'white').
Maybe,  a similar command should create the proper splash screen in
ddd/Makefile.am.
