You may want to ask on a gdb mailing list. See http://sourceware.org/gdb/ . I don't fully grasp your comment about objdump. A type like class X would not have an address. The objdump program does not dump debugging information. Note that in general you need to have a variable of type X before gdb can tell you anything about it. Ian
