Re: How to format core-files?

I got this from Dennis Handly at HP.

use dbx or gdb. I have gdb here so i use the following commands:

1. gdb name_of_executable_causing_core core_file name

ex. $gdb $ORACLE_HOME/oracle core

2) In gdb type "bt" or "where" to list where it core dumped.

3) list the registers:

info registers

4) disassemble the stack for the function:
