- Subject: Debugging Information in Separate Files
Hi to all,
reading the GDB manual at chapter 15.2 "Debugging Information in
Separate Files" (at
http://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb_16.html#SEC156 ) I'm
developing a software able to read the "debug link"section into the
executable file.
The manual tell to check for the ".gnu_debuglink" section into the
executable file, but when I check a Win32 EXE file I found that the
"debug link" section is named "/4", why?
PS: I know that a Win32 EXE file cannot contains sections with name
over 8 bytes.
Can someone help me, please?
