Description Naveen 2011-02-08 10:32:34 UTC 
Hi All,
 
I am not sure whether I am addressing to the correct mailling list. I am facing some issues with the GDB that I cross compiled for the ARM Cortex A9 based board. When I try to run a application, using GDB, once it hits the break point, it gives the following error and comes out.
 
Program terminated with signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap. 
Program no longer exists.
 
I searched in google, and some one reported that once they matched the versions of glibc and glibc devel, this problem got solved. However, mine seems to be a different issue. Any help in resolving this issue would be of great help.
 
Thanks in Advance,
Naveen.

What version of GDB are you using?

I haven't try GDB for Cortex A9, but we run GDB on Cortex A8 from time to time.  It works fine.  IMO, difference of A8 and A9 doesn't matter here.

If you have a small program to show your problem, that will be good.  You can also `set debug infrun 1' in gdb, and then gdb will print some debug messages.

Do you a version number of gdb that was affected by this problem? Do current versions work any better?

Closing due to lack of information and no response in 6 months.
