Re: Error building qnx cross-gdb 6.3


Hello to all,

Thanks Kris for the link. I thought cross-compilation was already in head with remote debugging. Anyway if it is useful I've debugged a bit.
It may seem a joke but the only commands I knew about gdb were r, c, and bt (yes, building a tool I never use is not usual but work is like that...) But anyway, this seems enough to get some hints:

It seems that in the signal_stop function array is not initialized. _initialize_infrun is not called?


(gdb) print signal_stop
$1 = (unsigned char *) 0x0

After some breakpoints (yes, I've learnt that right now ;-) ) I find that:

_initialize_nto_tdep is called before _initialize_infrun so signal arrays are not initialized. I can confirm this in gdb\init.c file of my build-dir

I will return when gdb 6.4 is out ;-) . Regards and thanks.

You're going into somewhat uncharted territories here. We _DO_ cross compile gdb targetting qnx but the GNU cvs doesn't have all the files yet for remote debugging. It only has self-hosted, i386 targetting.

If you would like a drop of the full port of the sources, go to http://www.qnx.com/download/group.html?programid=11358 and you can find compiled binaries and source for gdb-6.2.1. You may need to create a free myQNX account.

I also have 6.3.0 sources if you would like them. For what it's worth, I build gdb under cygwin with 'configure --disable-sim --disable-nls --disable-gdbtk --target=i386-nto'

cheers,

Kris
