Hi there, I would like to first thank the entire cygwin team for providing such a great tool that saved me countless times in corporate hell.
Now, I compiled large application that I am working on from another platform with gcc on cygwin in vista, and I found that it does not even startup properly. Before I got a smaller version to work, but after I added in more modules the startup time became terrible. The program has 500 mb memory footprint, when I looked at the debug it stopped on the first instruction in main and was running some code. I am not able to really see what is going on, process explorer says cygwin1!aclcheck Otherwise, I have seen it hang in some function that I cannot remember exactly ascii convert or something and other vista kernel functions. Basically, I would like to know is this : 1. how can I determine where the application is spending its time, It is doing something, but it seems to be in a buch of kernel calls. 2. where is my systrace and oprofile for cygwin that will show me the kernel calls? 3. is there a way to do a trace using gdb on cygwin? I would like to basically to a "nexti" a million times to see what instructions are being executed. please help, mike -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
