Try some of the Linux programming books; I have a wrox book that touches on gdb in a chapter, try to find some books that cover it a little more deeply. Speaking of debuggers :) , you might want to look at this article on ddd too. http://www.ddj.com/articles/2001/0103/0103a/0103a.htm Lucas -----Original Message----- From: Wacks, David [mailto:David.Wacks@ipni.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2001 10:01 AM To: 'plug-discuss@lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us' Subject: GDB and debugging techniques Hi, I am training some new c coders (and other languages) on RH6.2 and FreeBSD. I use GDB as the primary debugging tool. Are there better GPL ones out there (or easier to learn)? Anyone know of good sites that teach debugging? One problem I am finding is that coders today do not know how to debug (this is an overgeneralization but one I stand by :) I say this in the same breath that ASP is MS way of keeping the VB coders employable. *DUCK* Anyway, I am trying to set consistent and thorough debugging methods and trying to train same. Anyone know of courses, classes, sites, etc to help? Thanks, Dave ________________________________________________ See http://PLUG.phoenix.az.us/navigator-mail.shtml if your mail doesn't post to the list quickly and you use Netscape to write mail.
