Hi everyone,

first of all I use the latest version of dyninstAPI (git head).

I was experimenting with the mutator program of the Appendix A from the manuals (not the re-tee one),
and tried the custom really simple mutatee program below:

   #include <stdio.h>

   int foo() {return 1;}

   int main(void)
   {
        puts("Hello, world!");
        foo();
        return 0;
   }


I added the counter snippet for main and it worked. But never worked for function foo. The error I took was:

   Reading symbols from ./func_instr...done.
   (gdb) run
   Starting program: /home/gon1332/Training/Dyninst/func_instr

I tried nm and the foo function was there mangled:

   ➜  Dyninst  nm hello | grep foo
   000000000040057d T _Z3foov

but according to your note about findFunction:

   /*"*[NOTE: If name is not found to match any demangled function
   names in the module, the search is repeated as if name is a mangled
   function name. If this second search succeeds, functions with
   mangled names matching name are returned instead.]*"*/

shouldn't it be working?

Should I demangle (or mangle) it by myshelf and then search?

Thanks,
