Re: Symbolizing Crash Dump with atos. How does it get the .dSYM?

Let me clarify (2) for the edification of the list....

gdb also has a feature that tries to save the user a bit of time entering commands.

By specifying the 'set sharedlibrary preload-libraries no' command before the 'file' command, you tell gdb to _not_ load all the libraries the binary is directly linked against. This means that a single binary is loaded into gdb's symbol knowledge base and no symbols are overwritten.

So, with the preload-libraries feature turned off, I guess that if I ever needed to identify a symbol in a library, I'd have to execute a 'file' command to load that library. (But I can worry about that if/ when I ever need to.)

Thanks for the explanation, Rick, and also posting my final working example which I sent privately to you yesterday by mistake instead of to the list.

I've filed the bug on http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/symbolizingcrashdumps.html . It is Bug ID# 5765683.
