Hi Eric, all, Thanks for replying.
It is non-trivial to attach the matlab process to gdb. Matlab provides a command line option -Dgdb to associate the Matlab process for gdb debugging. Would it be easier to launch "matlab-shell" with -Dgdb as option? Maybe your or someone else could put lights on this approach?
