Re: debugging a dynamically loaded library



Kevin,

Can you tell me if any more progress has been made with this problem?
Do you have any ETA on when a resolution might be available?  Since
your email address is at 'cygnus.com', I'm assuming that you might be
one of the maintainers of gdb.  If not, any suggestions on who I might
contact would be appreciated!

Anything I might be able to do?

Thanks!

Mike
