please install the debug-symbols for spring (spring-dbg) + use spring non-mt.
Just to clarify. Is "spring-dbg" a client side debug build? I've been asked to use one due to an ongoing issue I'm experiencing. So it would be useful. Thank you!
spring-dbg (ubuntu-package) are the debug-symbols...
I don't understand it too. So wikipedia says: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debug_symbol "Sometimes the symbolic information is compiled together with the module's binary file, or distributed in separate file". Looks like in this situation "debug-symbols" are distributed in separate file.
But I still has no idea how this file will be linked to binary to provide more info during crash. I just decided to look at infolog next time to see the differences.
meh, sorry i forgot, the debug-symbols are only useful if you use gdb.
so, to get a more useful stacktrace when it crashed: don't press ok on the "Spring has crashed" dialog box.
to attach gdb to the running spring, you've to first get the pid:
Code:
ps aux|grep spring abma 2586 10.6 6.9 1058856 282028 ? Sl 13:13 10:49 /usr/lib/firefox-10.0.2/firefox http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=27804&p=516598&e=516598 abma 4439 14.8 6.0 480956 245584 pts/0 S+ 14:54 0:09 spring abma 4455 0.4 0.5 278152 20932 pts/0 S+ 14:54 0:00 zenity --title Spring crashed? --error --text Spring has crashed:?Segmentation fault (SIGSEGV).??A stacktrace has been written to:? /var/tmp/home/.spring/infolog.txt? abma 4482 0.0 0.0 10764 872 pts/1 S+ 14:55 0:00 grep spring
here it is 4439, then attach gdb to the running process:
Code:
sudo gdb -p 4439
then with "bt" or "bt full" you get a similar (but much more useful) output like in infolog.txt. without the debug symbols, no line info is shown.
I don't understand what you are saying here.. Could u make this more clear (possibly with a link to the stuff I'd need)? I have been having irregular crashes throughout the last versions which don't give any(!) info in the infolog so maybe this method gives some insight.
Stupid post warning! I m not coder so this might sound stupid. Yeah I mean debug build which was named spring-dbg in the ubuntu repos is it regular debug build? I guess no?
I know that normal debug build you can see every variable and so on so this one is -> unplayable slow, but spring-dbg package is something different if not whats the point in recommending it if you cant even go to such point where it will crash? Stupid post warning!
spring-dbg is simply the debug symbols for spring. You use it to translate the addresses in a stack trace and help you guess in which source files the bug is located.
