[Freeswitch-dev] Debugging Question

[Gilles Depatie]

Hi

 

I'm new to Freeswitch environment, but I have attempted to build an
executable where I could set breakpoints etc.

 

I have followed the instructions on the wiki where I define the two
environment vars CFLAGS and MOD_CFLAGS as "-g -ggdb"

 

I then run configure which sets the gcc compile option parameters across all
makefiles.

 

I notice that during the compilation, those option are invoked for all
source file that have produce output.

 

I've also confirmed that the object files for a sample set of files are
slightly larger when the compiler output has the options set than compiling
without those two options. So I assume that debug symbols were produced when
gcc is invoked with the debug option.

 

What I see is that after I have run make install, the freeswitch executable
is not any larger when debug symbols are requested than when it is not. In
fact the opposite is true. Size with debug = "114804", WITHOUT debug =
"114908"

 

When I attempt to list files from the GDB command line, I get the following:
"No source file named xxx.c"

 

The only file I can list is "switch.c" , which is the one that has the main
program.

 

 

 

Here is my environment:

 

VmWare Server 2.0

 

Red Hat 9 Linux, Kernel 2.6

 

FreeSwitch-1.0.4

 

gcc version 3.2.2 20030222

 

GNU gdb Red Hat Linux (5.3post-0.20021129.18rh)

 

Any help would be appreciated

 

Thanks
