HP-UX GUI debugger WDB




Hi
  I introduce myself as Balaji Satti working as a developer for SIAC. SIAC
develops and maintains software for American and New York Stock exchanges. We
are using HP machines and HP-UX 11.0. To debug our application we have been
using WDB from HP which is in reality a graphical interface over GNU's  gdb. In
recent times we are having problems with WDB as we are trying to step in to
various function calls. It displays an error saying that  a particular address
is inaccessable/ bad address. After that we have tried using the gdb which also
gives the same error messages. But when the program is run outside the debugger
it runs successfully.

I have tried the latest gdb5.2 version downloaded from GNU site. I was not even
able to run because it gives an error saying that auto-solib-limit exceeded. The
same never occured in the older version of gdb. However I tried both options of
increasing the auto-solib-limit and sharedlibrary command with out any success.

The following are the versions of various utilities we are using.
1) aCC    HP ANSI C++ B3910B A.03.13
2) WDB     2.0.1
3) GDB    2.1
4) OS     HP-UX11.0
I am sending out this mail in the hope that if somebody may have a  clue to why
this is happening or it is a known problem with the combination of HP-UX and
gdb. I will greatly appreciate any information in this matter.
Thanks
Balaji
