[Python-Dev] gdbinit and Gdb wrapper objects (original) (raw)

I am trying to use python gdb to debug a python process that is hanginig - it is a thread lock situation.

Larry,

python-dev is a mailing list for the development of Python, not the development with Python. So this question is off-topic.

1) Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening ?

Most likely, you didn't compile Python for debugging.

2) I have been unable to find any documentation (other than the gdbinit macros) about the make up of the Gdb wrapper objects and how to access the information in them. Does anyone know where I might get hold of some ?

I don't even know what a "Gdb wrapper object" is...

Regards, Martin
