The passing of 'this' pointer depends on the C++ calling convention in use. | | I think it reads wrong value from symbol table or stack frame. So i am trying to put a break point and see what exactly gdb reads for that perticuler frame when it shows a wrong data. But dont know where exactly it reads data from the symbol table or stack frame. AFAIK, symbol table simply stores symbols and their addresses, not data. Data you'll find in Data Section (readonly/static allocation), Stack (runtime-static allocation), or Heap (runtime-dynamic allocation).
