- Subject: process attaching gdb to itself
Hi all,
How can I have a running process gracefully attach gdb to itself ? I've
tried something like :
char cmd [256];
sprintf (cmd, "gdb attach %d", getpid ());
system (cmd);
which has the desired effect. However, once in gdb, the debugger is
stuck in wait4(2) and I cannot find a way to resume execution.
Thanks,
Aurelien
