Can anyone suggest how I can use a debugger with mono? I have looked at http://www.mono-project.com/Debugging and have followed the instructions with GDB.
My first problem is that step does not work. I get the response "(gdb) s Cannot find bounds of current function" I have a simple test programme that uses one library file I have compiled with the -debug option: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gmcs -debug -target:library static_test.cs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gmcs -debug -target:exe -reference:static_test.dll static_main.cs I then run gdb: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gdb mono GNU gdb 6.6-debian Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Are there any better ways of doing this? thanks dan _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
