gdb problem

Hello,

The gdb from XCode 2.3 can no longer step over any function calls in programs compiled with the Free Pascal Compiler (it generates stabs debug information). The gdb "next" command always results in stepping into the called function (i.e., the result is the same as if you'd say "step"). This problem does not occur with previous gdb's on Mac OS X, with gdb's on other platforms, or with gcc-compiled code and the current gdb on Mac OS X.

I've been comparing the stabs we generate with those from gcc, manually edited some stabs in both gcc-generated code and in our generated code, but have not been able to change the behaviour of either (i.e., "break" the gcc stabs or "fix" ours).

Can anyone tell me what changed between gdb-437 and gdb-477 in this respect? And if not, where I can download the source for gdb-477?


Jonas
