David,

I have seen one other bug that looks something like this. From the backtrace you attached to the bug, it looks like there is some cycle in class hierarchy as represented in the debug info for your app. gdb crashes trying to figure out whether some field is a member of a class. The crash comes because it has blown out the stack recursing through baseclasses of the original class. I doubt you actually have a class hierarchy that is some thousands of levels deep. So there is either some bug in the debug info, or in gdb's reading thereof.

To figure this out, I need to look at a copy of your app (with debug info) or some simpler example that shows the same problem. I only need the executable with debug info, not the source or the Xcode project or anything like that. If you can get me this and tell me some place where I can set a breakpoint to see the crash, I can most likely figure out what is going on.

Thanks,

Jim

I've got a C++ (Carbon) application which I used to be able to debug, but no longer can. I can set breakpoints in my application class, but if I set one in the window class, the debugger always crashes when it hits the breakpoint.

I've tried removing Xcode preferences, removing my build folder, reinstalling Xcode.

I've filed a bug in Radar. But I wonder if anyone knows of another GDB-related cache or preference that I can delete.
