[Asterisk-Dev] how to run Asterisk in gdb or other debugger?

[Cristian Draghici]

I can attach to the asterisk process with gdb after it has started
(I'm on OS X but I don't think that's what makes it work).

(gdb) attach 321
Attaching to process 321.
Reading symbols for shared libraries . done

done
0x9001f208 in select ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0x9001f208 in select ()
#1  0x00074dd8 in poll (pArray=0xbffffa58, n_fds=0, timeout=-1) at poll.c:296
#2  0x0005f438 in main (argc=-1073743272, argv=0xc76e0) at asterisk.c:2336
(gdb) info threads
  14 process 321 thread 0x2803  0x90040258 in mach_wait_until ()
  13 process 321 thread 0x2703  0x90040258 in mach_wait_until ()
[..]

Hope this helps,
Cristi
