How to debug .so file??

Hi All,

I have a question on debugging the .so file.

When I am running makefile I am getting a .so file and we are using that .so file for executing our code.But I want to know
1.Can I use dbx or gdb to debug a .so file?
2.How can i generate .out file so that i can use that in dbx or gdb for debugging?

Please help me??

Thanks in advance!!!Smilie

Your .so is a shared library that you'll be using within another program. Before you go to debug whatever program is using the library, set your LD_PRELOAD variable to reference whatever .so files you are using.

Cheers,
Keith
