Is there a debug version of Cog that I can run on the box? I have casually avoided learning how to build Cog in part because that means I can't hack the FFI plugin, which forces me to play by the rules on library paths/ldconfig, etc. It also means that I don't have a build environment ready to go, so I can't readily add syslog() calls to bracket where it quits. gdb isn't helping as described below. If there is something you want me to try, let me know. We have a reproducible Cog crash. ________________________________________ From: pharo-project-bounces@lists.gforge.inria.fr [pharo-project-bounces@lists.gforge.inria.fr] On Behalf Of Schwab,Wilhelm K [bschwab@anest.ufl.edu] Sent: Friday, April 08, 2011 6:03 PM To: Pharo-project@lists.gforge.inria.fr; Squeak Virtual Machine Development Discussion Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] [Vm-dev] FW: Debugging Cog crash Levente, I follow on why my shell script did not work. Your instructions got me going, but we still don't have an answer. The vm is running, but I cannot attach: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/vm-dev/2008-March/001840.html
From what I read, one answer is the get the image loaded and then attach - my problem is that the vm never gets far enough to actually load the image.
Any ideas? Bill
