I cannot see from your mail what you mean by subroutine, by I assume that you mean some fortran or what-ever language subroutine, which as compiled by gcc, finally should result in some function library binding. Such a library binding is necessary to break at function entrance, which is completely sensefull, since gdb needs the function or subroutine entrance point that is linked with the examined program. Though this is not always available by simply loading the program text, since some functions or subroutines will be known at run time only (static functions aren't exported but are completely local). What you can do is to break at you main entry point to get the program running first and then install your subroutine breakpoints. There is also a method to tell gdb to do this automatically but I don't know the command. > > Thank you > > > > Victor MARIAN > Department of Machine Elements and Tribology > University Politehnica of Bucharest > Spl.
