Yes. I want to debug into the gtk kernel. So I "enable-debug=yes". I forget use LD_LIBRARY_PATH to load my compiled gtk library. After export this parameter, I can get into the gtk code. I use ddd as my default gdb debug tool.

How to step into it? Make sure you've built your program with the "-g" flag, then type something like: $ gdb myapp (gdb) break gtk_init (gdb) run See: http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/documentation There are also plenty of GUI wrappers over gdb, such as kdbg or even ddd. You might find them easier to use. valgrind is very useful for debugging memory errors. > I have compiled the gtk+-2.18.9 with the option > “—enable-debug=yes”. You only need to do this if you want to debug the internals of gtk. Even then, there are probably already debug versions of the libraries in your package manager. Just build your program with -g.
