Hello, I wrote my own version of memchr( ) but looks like it is clashing with GCC's builtin function of same name. I'm not able to set any breakpoint. How should I over-ride this ? Here is the code I wrote: ----- memchr.cpp ---- void* memchr(const void* str, int ch, size_t count) { unsigned char* buf = (unsigned char*)str; unsigned char c = ((unsigned char)(ch)); register unsigned int i; for(i=0; i<count; i++) { if(*buf == c) return (void*)buf; buf++; } return NULL; } I compiled the above like: g++ -c -g -Wall -ansi -nostdinc -nostdinc++ -fno-builtin fno-nonansi-builtins -Wshadow memchr.cpp And to test the above code, here is a simple main( ) --- test_memchr.cpp --- int main( ) { const char msg[ ] = "Hello World"; char x; char *c=&x; c = (char*)memchr(msg, 'X', 10); return *c; } The above was compiled as g++ -g -Wall -nostdinc++ -nostdinc -fno-builtin test_memchr.cpp memchr.o The program gives a segmentation fault ! And I can't put a breakpoint even though "-g" is specified. My guess is that I'm somewhere calling GCC's in built memchr instead of mine. Can somebody help me where am I going wrong ? -- Satish.BD
