Using GDB instead of dbx as a debugging backend in SunStudio express 11/08

807578Dec 15 2008 — edited Dec 15 2008
Hi,
the subject says it all....
Is this possible in any way?

I have all of my projects built with g++ 4.1.1, and when I try to debug them with dbx (both inside SS express, and from the commandline and from dbxtool), I get a SIGSEV in dbx while loading the binaries...
End of the story: I cannot debug them with dbx (don't know why!!!).
So my first quick workaround would be to use gdb, having SunStudio as a GUI front-end for it.
Is it possible?

Thanks,
Andrea.
