"core" file reader/analyzer tool

[gary fay]

I need to analyze a core dump file on a HP9000/HP-UX10.2 Is there a tool I can use?

Thanks

Hi,

You can use the adb debugger that comes with HP-UX to analyse your core file. You can also use other 3rd party debuggers such as gdb but you will need to download them separately.

Hope this helps. Regards.

Hi Jim,

Any debugger will do the job: adb, gdb, xdb.

Remember that, for a quick core check, you can simply type 'file core' to determine which program created the core.

Best regards,

Dan
