For reference:
OSX 10.10.5
GDB 7.9.1 (non apple; from homebrew)
yes, it is code signed
Compiling with dub: "dflags": ["-gc", "-gs"]
I would also like to preface this post by saying that everything
works fine in GDB on linux.
When finding that a bug in my program was a null pointer bug, I
decided to drop into GDB to try to figure out what was happening.
But I quickly realized that trying to set a breakpoint in a file
other than the one where the main function is, and stepping into
functions in a file other than the one where the main function
is, don't work. GDB will return something like:
Cannot insert breakpoint 2.
Cannot access memory at address 0x9bc06
when trying to insert a breakpoint in another file. GDB also
treats the aforementioned step command as a continue because it
can't read the file where the function is defined. Nothing
changes when running the command as sudo either.
Two more pain points: `info locals` doesn't work. It responds
with "No symbol table info available." And `info variables`
returns the mangled D names for variables and not their real
name, despite the language being set to D and doing `demangle
[some_name]` returns the correct names.
