-* Debugging information
-
- Compile your programs using the `-g' flag in MCS, that will all a special
- resource containing debugging information to your executable.
-
- To get stack traces with line number information, you need to run your
- program like this:
-
- <b>
- mono --debug program.exe
- </b>
-
- Notice that the program will need to be compiled with the -g
- flag and that running with --debug will slow down the execution.
-
-* Debugging with GDB
-
- If you use GDB to debug your mono process, you can use the function
- mono_print_method_from_ip(void *address) to obtain the name of a method
- given an address.
-
- For example:
-
- <pre>
-(gdb) where
-#0 ves_icall_System_String_GetHashCode (me=0x80795d0) at string-icalls.c:861
-#1 0x0817f490 in ?? ()
-#2 0x0817f42a in ?? ()
-#3 0x0817f266 in ?? ()
-#4 0x0817f1a5 in ?? ()
-</pre>
-
- You can now use:
-
-<pre>
-(gdb) p mono_print_method_from_ip (0x0817f490)
-IP 0x817f490 at offset 0x28 of method (wrapper managed-to-native) System.String:GetHashCode () (0x817f468 0x817f4a4)
-$1 = void
-(gdb) p mono_print_method_from_ip (0x0817f42a)
-IP 0x817f42a at offset 0x52 of method System.Collections.Hashtable:GetHash (object) (0x817f3d8 0x817f43b)
-$2 = void
-</pre>
-
- Mono support libraries use a couple of signals internally that
- confuse gdb, you might want to add this to your .gdbinit file:
-
-<pre>
- handle SIGPWR nostop noprint
- handle SIGXCPU nostop noprint
-</pre>
-
-* Mono Debugger
-
- The Mono debugger is written in C# and can debug both managed
- and unmanaged applications, support for multiple-threaded
- applications and should be relatively easy to port to new
- platforms.
-
- Details of the release are available in <a
- href="http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/mono-list/2003-January/011415.html">post</a>.
-
- The debugger contains both Gtk# and command line interfaces.
- The debugging file format used in Dwarf (it's already supported
- by our class libraries and the Mono C# compiler; To debug C
- applications, you need a recent GCC, or to pass the -gdwarf-2
- flag to gcc).
-
- You can download the releases from <a
- href="http://primates.ximian.com/~martin/debugger/">Martin Baulig's
- home page.</a>
