Hi all,
I have followed the instructions at
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/
MacOSX_Debug_OpenOffice.org_using_XCode
to debug OOo, but the
Debug Executable menu
is not enabled. Any ideas?
Like you, I just started OO build weeks ago.
For XCode...i just gave up !
You must use gdb... (untill more information is available)
I just use XCode for code editing and browsing.
If you don't gdb, here is a quick tuto : (Thanks to Pavel and Eric !)
build vcl with debug, see
(http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/AquaBuild#Creating_Debug-
Versions_of_Modules)
see also
(http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Debugging#Examining_strings)
(for example, i inserted those commands in salnativewidgets.cxx)
> cd <install dir>/Contents/program
> gdb --args ./soffice.bin -norestore - nofirststartwizard
gdb starts and wait for a command...
Here is a short list of commands i know and use :
> b salnativewidgets.cxx:462
this command will put a breakpoint inthe specified file, at the
specified line number
gdb informs you that this breakpoint has number X
> delete X
delete breakpoint X
> run
start openoffice
>c
continue execution after a breakpoint
>n
next instruction (if it's a call to a function, don't go inside the
function)
>s
next instruction (if it's a call to a function, go inside the function)
>p var_name
print value of variable
>p dbg_dump(string_var_name)
print value of an OUString or an OString
(it's the standard string type in OO ; but it's unicode, so 'p
string_var_name' show only hex values)
>display <var name>
>display dbg_dump(string_var_name)
automatically print value of the var at each breakpoint
(very usefull inside loops !)
>bt
show the calling chain, from main() to the current breakpoint
You can do a CTRL C in gdb : it'll stop execution, as if a breakpoint
was present at the current instruction
Hope this helps,
Michel Renon
