As it turns out, I'm too stupid (well, too impatient really) to use gdb by itself. I'd prefer something that gave a listing of the source code on the screen, showed the currently-executing line, etc.
There seems to be about 18,732 different gdb front-ends out there. Does anyone have any preference?
I am using ddd. for solaris' dbx it will be ddd --dbx programname for gdb - ddd --gdb programname or ddd programname for perl - ddd --perl programname for java - ddd --jdb programname wdb = ddd --wdb programname xdb = ddd --xdb programname The interface is not perfect, but neat. -- All the Best! ----------------- Sergey Kuznetsov Senior Software Developer Blueprint Initiative Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute at Mount Sinai Hospital -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
