What he is talking about??? How I am supposed to access the 
insight, gcc, gdb lists? After all the last two are GNU! not
sourceware, cygnus , redhat etc etc etc...

Subject: QUESTION ON INSIGHT 5.0

Hello,

I recenty done a port (well almost) to DG/UX unix of 
gdb-5.0. This port supports threads. The target named
"dgux" (dgux_ops as child_ops for "child" in inftarg.c)
will run as default target in gdb-5.0. I build insight
5.0 with the same files from gdb-5.0. It builds OK.
But the View->Thread list will not work! I put a trap 
printf("HELLO THREADS INSIGHT\n");
in the start of gdb/thread.c/info_thread fucntion and
nothing is coming out. So that means that it doesnt see 
the target DG/UX at all. How can I add a new target? 
The obvious "Select Target..." menu of insight doesnt 
give me any choice of "dgux" target; Only some Cisco etc etc ... 
However if I got out to a gdb console I can clearly see with
info targets the "dgux" target. (or use the command info threads)
I cannt see also (in Target Select) the core file! target. 
How one debugs cores with insight-5.0? (if this is possible).
Lastly gdb-5.0 for DG/UX has some new commands. One is 
"info threads-status"  that will give info for the threads in PID
related with the DG/UX kernel (sched, etc). I want to add
this new commands to insight-5.0 (when is targeted/builds for a DG/UX 
system). I couldnt find any info on how to add a command , or any
automated process in insight that we can do that at runtime.
Please direct me to files that I should look and hack.

Regards,
Takis  

PS:

PLease remove the "-lc" from the Makefiles of tk/unix tcl/unix,
itcl/itk/ ... etc ... IT IS WRONG TO LINK -lc directly. GCC should 
take care of this, depending on the OS flags and options given for each
OS (LIB_SPEC). Please consult the gcc list that is next to you!
