you should try:
info threads

and from the resulting thread list you might see the first known
function/method from your code.
pick the number and try:
thread <picked thread num>

then:
where

does that help?

gdb on the Mac






Hi all,

when I use gdb on the Mac (10.2) I get stack traces like this

...
#14 0x930f9f5c in -[NSApplication sendAction:to:from:] ()
#15 0x9316f638 in -[NSMenu performActionForItemAtIndex:] ()
#16 0x931afd48 in -[NSCarbonMenuImpl
performActionWithHighlightingForItemAtIndex:] ()
#17 0x932bae48 in -[NSMenu performKeyEquivalent:] ()
#18 0x930a8efc in -[NSApplication sendEvent:] ()
#19 0x930b2418 in -[NSApplication run] ()
#20 0x931605cc in NSApplicationMain ()
#21 0x00002ea4 in _start ()
#22 0x00002d24 in start ()

It gives me no line numbers!

gdb -v

On my Solaris box it gives me line numbers which helps a lot. Here I use

-bash-3.00$ gdb -v

Can I convince the Apple gdb to generate line numbers as well?

Thanks a lot!
