Re: shared library symbols not loaded automatically
Hi Daniel,
I am not clear how setting solib-absolute-prefix will solve this problem.
The manual says that it is used as a prefix for searching the libraries
at runtime.
When I use the command sharedlibrary at the gdb prompt, the libraries
are correctly loaded.
Doesn't this mean that I do not need to set the solib-absolute-prefix??

Hello,
I am trying to debug a program which uses shared libraries.
My host is i386-linux and target is arm-linux.
While debugging, gdb shows me the shared libraries used by my program
but it does not load the symbols automatically (auto-solib-add is set).
I have to explicitly use the sharedlibrary command after which the shared
library symbols are read in.
It looks like you need to set solib-absolute-prefix.
Reading symbols from /lib/libc.so.6...done.
Loaded symbols for /lib/libc.so.6
This is probably loading your system's /lib/libc.so.6.
