what is the cmd in gdb to know resource info
Hi All,

I am running one exe file say xyz and it is executing some 300 files. This xyz hanges when it reach at file no 232. So I checked this particular file by putting in the beginning and it didnt hang at that file but hanaged again at file no 232. So i figure out its not a problem with xyz or the files it is executing. Its a memory problem or it could be anything else related to system resources.

Can any one help me how can i figure out what the system resource problem. Do we any command in gdb to tell any information about the system resources. If it is there i can put xyz in debug and can figure it out.

Thansk in advance.
Regards
Gauri

Without knowing exactly what you're doing -

If you are calling exec() 232 times you are probably exceeding a process limit - the number of processes allowed on the system. With that many processes running concurrently nobody is going to get anything done.
