Have you tried searching puredata.info for "gdb"? There is some info there for how to do it. Its relatively easy once you know the right steps, I've done it a few times.
For debug builds, you just need to make sure you have "-g" as a flag, and remove any "-O" flags and 'strip' commands.

hello all..
i built a complicated external and needed to debug it. i wanted to use gdb debugger (i m under linux) and since I found no info about how to find the external s "mounting" adress which gdb requires, i m currently compiling pure data extended as a whole plus my source code added.. so I ve added myexternal_setup() function in m_conf.c and I referenced my source files in the makefile.in file of the src directory..
gdb seems to work fine appart that it seems to jump portions of code without reason.. so i m wondering if thats not caused by optimisation arguments given to the gcc compiler when building.. i ve noticed the -O2 options in a few make/config files which are generated automaticaly after the "make install" command... where can i specify that i want thoses files to be generated so as to include a "no compilation" option (for example the -O0 option if i'm correct)??
i ve searched a long time.. any idea, or hint to where to look would be of great help.. thanks in advance..
