[Converted from Gnats 1798] Problem occurs while using gdb to debug C/C++ programs with embedded Sun JVM. The JVM can generate SIGSEGV's as part of it's normal garbage collection. The JVM traps and handles these signals. However, gdb terminates the program C/C++ program. Is there some way gdb could ignore the SIGSEGV's from the JVM, while continuing to process other SIGSEGV's in it's normal way? Release: 5.0 plus Environment: Solaris, Cygwin, Windows
I think this could probably be done if there were a way to attach commands to a "signal breakpoint". However, AFAIK there is no way to do this. I'm closing this as a duplicate of the feature request for "catch signal". *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 7221 ***
