Keywords: xdb Message-ID: <12873@netcom.UUCP> Date: 29 Aug 90 22:35:16 GMT Organization: Netcom- The Bay Area's Public Access Unix System {408 241-9760 guest} Lines: 18 I am debugging a C program that has static data that is getting corrupted before the first statement in my main. Somebody suggested that I single step in assembley mode before the first statement in main. But xdb always jumps to the first statement in main even with the debugger in the assembley mode. This is what I am doing: Start xdb td #go into assemble mode s #single step It always go to the first statement in main. Am I not doing something first? Thanks.
