[PD-dev] Debugging PD

I wrote:

How can one get a backtrace of PD if for example, you get a segfault? I was thinking of gdb, but not sure exactly what to do, as I don't know whether PD runs in several threads, etc.

The problem is using PD with Jack, and using the -audiodev command and entering more than one audio device, eg 1,2. With 1 only, PD stays running, but with more than 1, it segfaults shortly after startup.

Turns out this is proper behavior. With Jack, there is no real number of audio devices. Using the -inchannels and -outchannels arguments got what I wanted.
