Using the addr2errline sample program from http://linuxgazette.net/151/misc/melinte/addr2line.c I get the following results:
> gcc addr2errline.c -o addr2errline -lbfd -liberty -lz > ./addr2errline getlineno 0x804b335 0x804b2aa main [getlineno.c:61] ThisLine [getlineno.c:49] > gcc -m32 addr2errline.c -o addr2errline -lbfd -liberty -lz > ./addr2errline getlineno 0x804b335 0x804b2aa > ** no result, nothing found, 0 lines of output ** It does not depend on the library version. If I link against old 32bit bfd & liberty librays from x86_32 days of OpenSuse10.1 it does not work either. Perhaps this is some general incompatibility of 32/64bit plattforms. Debugging addr2errline.c I found that the error turns out at the following point: slurp_symtab(bfd *abfd) { ... if ((bfd_get_file_flags(abfd) & HAS_SYMS) == 0) return -1; binutils-2.19-9.3 posted as: Bug 10151 _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
