[Mono-devel-list] Debugging C# application with gdb

[Aleksandar Dezelin]

I have a small test app. I've tried the following

$ gdb mono

(gdb) r --debug --break Serverski.ServerClass:Main ./Server.exe

(gdb) add-symbol-file ./Server.exe.mdb
add symbol table from file "./Server.exe.mdb" at
(y or n) y
"/home/skynet/work/c#/Jugodrvo/lib/Server.exe.mdb": can't read
symbols: File format not recognized.


Is there a way I could produce a gdb compatible debugging info with mcs.exe?

Cheers,
