[Mono-list] Debugging NUnit Test Cases

I'm guessing StackOverFlowException means there is a recursive function call
in there somwhere.. calling itself for eternity.

Subject: [Mono-list] Debugging NUnit Test Cases


Is there any way to tell NAnt to compile the test cases with debugging
information so that the NUnit test cases can be debugged with e.g.
DbgCLR?  ``<property name="debug"/>'' doesn't seem to apply to test
targets.  It would simplify things if I didn't have to recompile DLLs by
hand just to get the debugging information...

Also, why is the default for some assemblies, such as System.dll, omit
debugging information?  (<property name="debug" value="false"/>)

Finally, does anybody have any idea why I'd be getting a
System.StackOverflowException when running an NUnit test case?  (In
particular, the TraceTest suite, just added to CVS.  This is why it
*isn't* part of AllTests.cs.)  It doesn't appear to be my case in
particular, as any of the System.dll test suite's generates the same
error on my machine.  (This is why I tried getting debugging
information.  Even with debugging information, I didn't see any actual
stack overflows; after a function return, the StackOverflowException was
emitted.)

Thanks,
 - Jon
