I don't grok makefiles yet. But I suppose there would be a command
line option for the kamailio Makefile to instruct it to build the core
and modules with debug symbols.
So, how do you guys usually compile kamailio with debug symbols?
Hi mayamatakeshi,
if you compile from the source then its already compiled with debug symbols,
and the binary is not stripped, so gdb should work just fine. If you build a
debian package then the binaries are also compiled with debug symbols, but
they are stripped and placed in a separate -dbg package. You can then install
this debug package, and gdb should use this debugging informations.
Cheers,
Henning
