I'm sure you meant gdb (the GNU Debugger), not gcc.

AFAIK, that is not a random number but the process id.

RE: [hlds_linux] core dump files

2003-07-07 Thread Nick McLaren

You can use core files with gcc to debug the crash using the executable from
your system (ex: hlds_i686). For the most part, the hlds_run shell script
will automatically obtain useful information from the core file upon dump if
you include "-debug" on the commandline. The only situation where -debug
will NOT work is on systems that dump to files name "core." for example "core.9866". To date the hlds_run script will only
detect dumps to a file named "core" in the same directory as the executable.
If you have a case where the -debug will not write proper info to the
debug.log file, you can always run the commands manually. Just look over the
hlds_run script to see how it handles this.
