1. Yes, it's the same pointer
2. Destructor doesn't do anything
3. Everything is allocated with 'new' and deleted with 'delete'
4. Yes, but they appear to be within bounds. I'm not sure...

Any idea what this would mean?




I've checked in Windows, and some of the member pointers of this object I'm deleting are NULL - would that cause an issue on UNIX?

Hey, thanks for the reply. I originally thought something similar to this, but the code works fine in Windows.

Hey Everyone,

I have a check similar to this:

if (ptr)
{
delete ptr;
ptr = null;
}When I'm debugging in AIX (using dbx), if I attempt to print the value of 'ptr' it says "ptr is not...

I'm trying to debug a service crash, and would like to break on an access violation - is this possible?

Hi everyone,

I've been struggling with this for a few weeks now. I'm trying to debug a running process with dbx on an AIX box.

The command I'm using is 'dbx -a <pid> core'
There is a function...

Interesting question - didn't think about that. I'll check now. Thanks

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to attach to a process that is crashing so I can debug the source code. I've tried this:

This is in AIX.

Hey everyone,

Is there a way to make dbx break on access violations?

Wow, great! Thanks for the help, this exactly what I was looking for!

Hey everyone,

I have a process that is crashing, and I'd like to have some way to see where it crashes. Is this possible?

I did.
Thanks for all of your help!

Everything is working again - the segfaults have gone away. For some reason my new code wasn't being used...

I think the easiest thing for me to do at this point is post both of my files. I've already posted a large chunk, and those are probably outdated now.

Flow begins at prepare_smtp_message()...

I guess I'm a little confused - why can I do '*pst = conn;' in windows but not in AIX?

The typedef in windows is:
typedef void FAR * socktag;

And in AIX its:
typedef void * socktag;
...

I agree.

So I did
*pst = (void *)conn;
because just 'pst' wouldn't compile. But I'm still getting the problem where pst stay 0 the whole time. Any idea what else to try?

Great, thanks for the help. I'll keep debugging that - I figure we're very close to figuring out these segfaults. We might actually rewrite the whole component.
We just got word from our client...

pst is 0 when it enters. Maybe this will provide more insight into what I'm trying to do:
int gensock_getchar (int st, int wait, char * ch)
{
int retval = 0;
connection *conn;

conn =...

Ok I've ran into a bit of a snag. I'm trying to do something similar to this:


typedef void * socktag

int gensock_connect (char * hostname,
char * service,
...

Ok so here's what happens.

It goes here:

int get_smtp_line( void )
{
char ch = '.';
char in_data [MAXOUTLINE];
char * index;
int retval = 0;

index = in_data;

cout...

Oh yea, duh. I wasn't sure if it was even making into the function or not. When I try to step in, it blows up.


int get_smtp_line( void )
{
char ch = '.';
char in_data [MAXOUTLINE];
...

Ok no problem - I can fix that back. Thanks
