>Release: GDB 6.4
>Organization:
>Environment:
Sun Solaris 10, X86
>Description:
the GDb was built using
./configure
make
make install
as prescribed by the intallation info. The gdb was configured as "i386-pc-solaris2.10". However, when we run GDN against an executable, we got the error in the Synopsis, and the symtab is not read. line 6004 of gdb/dwarf2read.c,
dwarf2_per_objfile->str_size is 0.
dbx, which comes with the Sun packaged software, works fine on that executable.
however, GDB works fine on our small test prgrams.
