Subject: [Caml-list] Debugging mixed ocaml/C code
Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2002 22:15:22 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D7FF8BA.6080508@cs.cornell.edu> (raw)
Does anyone have any suggestions for debugging mixed ocaml/C code? I
have some code that uses a wrapper for the Berkeley DB. When using some
features of that wrapper (namely transaction support), I find that my
app segfaults. Unfortunately, it doesn't do the nice thing and segfault
inside of the wrapper in a way that makes the bug findable with printfs.
Instead, it segfaults in a predictable place in the ocaml code
instead. (Surprisingly, it segfaults in the same place if I compile to
native code or bytecode.)
My question is, does anyone have any suggestions as to how one might go
about tracking down such a bug? Are any of the standard debuggers (gdb,
ocamldebug) useful for mixed ocaml/C code?
Thanks,
Yaron
