Is it possible to debug a makefile? In a bash script I can use "set -x" so that all variables are shown with their values. I am looking for such feature in makefile to see the variables and their values.
View 2 RepliesDoes anyone know how can one improve his debugging skills or how can one narrow down the problem and try to get to the solution ASAP.Or rather how once should approach a problem.I know this is a bit vague question but I want to know how you people approach?

I tried to debug a C++ project in Eclipse Helios, last release. I set breakpoints in some non-main functions, but the debug function never stops there, and I get a warning message which says
"breakpoint attribute problem installation failed" What could be the reason?
PS: The same problem also happens with Eclipse Galileo, last release PS2: I found here info about the bug but no solution:[URL]..
I'm preparing for an interview and came across this question in a forum:
If your browser crashes, how would you debug it only using the command line?
For simplicity, let's assume it's a Firefox browser on a *nix environment.

View 7 Replies View RelatedRecently I have been having trouble debugging in Eclipse. I an writing a Java Applet and testing it using Eclipse's Applet Viewer but when I attempt debug mode it sometimes causes my GUI to freeze. I am able to break out to the prompt using ctrl-alt-f1 and restart the gui, but that's annoying because I then have to restart all the apps running on it.

I have created a Radius startup script in /etc/init.d for Debian which looks like this:
Now this works but when I boot my server it shows as ready to process requests and it doesnt login. I cant get a login prompt. If I do a CTRL C to try close this it doesnt work and just shows CTRL C on the screen, I can type in kill radius but nothing happens.
I guess its because my script is in debugging mode, most of the suggestions for a script said I should use:
However the radiusd a doesnt work and if I try to run using command radiusd in it comes up and says invalid command and I dont have the option to use
So if this script runs on my server, I could connect to the server through a putty session via port 22 and log on fine and do what I need too, but if I try to connect to the server directly after boot its just sitting on ready to process requests and I cannot do anything when directly at the server. On one particular server I didnt have the network confg right so I couldnt putty to it and now Im a bit stuck. Will I need to rebuild my server? As I canït break out of this ready to process requests and I cannot login as its just sitting there, I have tried connecting through serial management via my laptop but I cant do anything this way either the only way I could do anything was if I could get through to the server on putty.
There must be a way when directly at the server to cancel the radius and get logged in? As Ive mentioned CTRL C doesnt work. I can get to the ok prompt but not sure what command to use and if I could change the network config at the ok prompt or if I could somehow cancel the startup script at the ok prompt? I thought I could use the init commands to start the server without the script starting but the init commands don�t work and the server just sits there.
Also I guess I shouldnt be using radius X in my startup script, to prevent this problem is there something else I should be using? I tried using radius x (the small x) and I hit enter and then no process for radius starts .
Been trying to setup my xorg.conf file to have a 1920x1200 screen.Strange behavior: when my X starts up, I see my mouse cursor, can move it around. It's small enough to suggest the 1920x1200 resolution took, is working.However, the rest of the screen remains black. No login prompt.I've looked at /var/log/xorg.conf, no errors.Is there something else I can look at?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to figure out how to use make and makefile to compile and link some .cpp/.h. All i seem to find on google says to read the README for the software. But this is my own created c++ project. Im just looking for a simple makefile for my own .cpp/.h files( about 20 total).
I have tried using 2 different makefile "examples" as a template, but neither worked. I am getting error saying "file1.cpp: no newline character at end of file". or something to that degree.
I can find all kinds of information on calling a script from a makefile but not the other way around.I'm writing a VERY basic shell script, and I need to call a makefile located in a directory lower than the shell script but can't seem to figure it out../dir/make and ./dir/makefile don't work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know if it is possible to make rules in a Makefile that would work like this:
> make debug module
or
> make module debug
where module can be any module that has a specific rule in the Makefile.
The thing I have is a Makefile with different rules that I compile like this:
> make module
What I would like is to add an option so I can compile whichever module with debug-information just by adding a debug to the make command. The debug-information I know how to do, the problem is how to make the Makefile work...

As part of an assignment, our class was given a small set of c++ classes which are compiled using a makefile. As part of the assignment, I have created a namespace and saved in it a .cpp file. The functions, constants and typedefs from the namespace are now used in one of the original files, and so I added an <#include MyFile.cpp> to the file I modified, in addition to a using MyNamespace;
When I try to use the original makefile, the compiler gives a lot of errors about multiple definitions of every function in the namespace. What do I need to do to resolve this? Do I need to change the makefile or one of the files themselves? I am new to Linux programming and makesfiles.
I'm calling a function defined in "uart.c" from "main.c"
But on "make" using cygwin bash, it's giving an error:"Unreferenced function"...
Pls help me to overcome this problem.
If i'm putting the definition of that function in "main.c" itself, its working.
So pls tell me how to write the make file for it?
I have ~200 c files in my makefile[$(SRCS)], and it compiles all of the files using a single gcc command. So each time I make a change in one c file, it ends up re-compiling all the files, then linking to make the
binary. How can I break out the compilation into individual gcc commands for each c file, so that make checks the timestamp and accordingly compiles only the modified files.
My current Makefile looks like this.
clean:
I'm installing a package but that package doesn't has "makeFile" file, it only has "makefile.am" and "makefile.in". therefore when ever i use the "make" command i get: "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop."

This hasn't happened to me before, but I develop for the Android platform and (perhaps needless to say) I really need to be able to debug on a real device. On past installs, my device was recognized automatically and debugging was as easy as checking "debug" in the Android's settings, but now (after updating to Maverick from Lucid) the phone registers with adb as?It mentions some necessary tasks for set-up on Ubuntu, but only mentions this process for Dapper/Gutsy/Hardy. Is there any personal experience out there that can confirm that this works and/or is necessary on Maverick?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find some ideas on debugging clients and servers. For example, what would be -really great- is to
1. start a debugger with a server (running on a port)
2. start up the client (using a debugger).
Run the client and then trace the processing from the client side to the server side.
How can one accomplish this?
I have downloaded valgrid and Qt Creator - but not sure how one can use both.
