Hello, Jeffrey Stedfast Did you have some document about how to use gdb debug evolution, I think It is really hard to debug evolution with gdb due to evolution is a muilt process application, So if I debug evolution, I have to append a lot of process. I think you must be have some skill to debug evolution, so could you give me some info about it ? :-) Did evolution's source tree was maintained by gnome org, did you have some branch for your new milestone like mozilla1.o branch, did you only have one cvs tree? How do you control your cvs tree, did you have tinderbox for build evolution automatically? Needing your anwser Thank you Antonio Xu Jeffrey Stedfast wrote:
