From: lwerzinger@krones.de (Lothar Werzinger) Subject: gdb and executables of MSVC++50 28 Jan 1998 07:51:38 -0800 Message-ID: <34CF5098.F0FB5980.cygnus.gnu-win32@krones.de> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: gnu-win32 Mailinglist Hi, as I got no reply until now, I try to resen this (slightly modified) message Is it possible to debug executables which were produced by the MSVC++ (DevStudio 97 Service Pack 2) compiler with gdb? As far as I know, gdb supports COFF. but when I load the executable, gdb complains about finding no debug information. As far as I found out gdb is capable of loading and executing the binary. The only thing I would need, is a converter that makes a gdb symbol file out of the *.pdb files of the MSVC++ compiler. Has anybody written such a program or is doing so? Besides the fact that the .pdb files are MS and binary, it should be just a question of demangling the MS names and remangle them in a way gdb understands them or?
