 Hello,
 
 we run Solaris 10 on x86, SUN galaxy machine ( AMD Processors ) with 
 Oracle 10R2, all 64-bit and have to analyze an oracle core dump,
 get the Stack trace of the core file and send it to Oracle.
 
 I am new to gdb sorry:
 The question first is: is gdb supported on Solaris 10 x86 to debug 
 64-bit applications ?
 If yes, how to compile id and are the some prerequsites
 
 our compiler (shipped with SUN OS )
 
     (oracle@chsrv1:CHDB1) $ gcc -v
     Reading specs from /usr/sfw/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.4.3/specs
     Configured with:
     /builds/sfw10-gate/usr/src/cmd/gcc/gcc-3.4.3/configure
     --prefix=/usr/sfw --with-as=/usr/sfw/bin/gas --with-gnu-as
     --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --without-gnu-ld --enable-languages=c,c++
     --enable-shared
     Thread model: posix
     gcc version 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath)
     (oracle@chsrv1:CHDB1) $
 
 
 downloaded gdb-6.5
 
 what i did::
 
 *export CFLAGS="-m64 -g -O2"*
 .*/configure*
 *make all* ... produces some warnings
 *make install*
 
 *su - oracle*
