Hi again Dong, I was thinking about your problem some
more and I think I was not taking your problem statement as literally as you
meant it maybe. Are you saying the code you cannot see in the debugger
resides in a MODULE definition file? If so, I would say the problem is due
to general limitations of using gdb as a Fortran debugger. If you use the
Intel debugger, you will be able to step into Intel Fortran generated code
which is contained in a MODULE. I see you are using version 11.0 of Intel
Fortran. There are a couple of choices for you. Intel Fortran 11.0
comes with a new standalone GUI version of IDB. You could use it if you
don’t mind building in Eclipse, but debugging in another tool. You
invoke the new gui version with the “idb” command assuming you
initialized your environment for using the Intel debugger. Intel Fortran
11.0 also provides the command line version of the debugger which you can invoke
with the “idbc” command, again, assuming you have initialized your
environment for using the Intel debugger. A third alternative you could
try is to modify your debug launch configuration in Photran so that it invokes
idbc instead of gdb. This is not something that is officially supported
by Intel, but when I try it with an example similar to what I think your
situation is, it works o.k. Again, this is not supported by Intel so if
you run into other problems in this configuration, there would be no help.
If it works well enough for you though, it let’s you do everything within
Eclipse/Photran. If you want to try it, initialize your environment to
use the Intel debugger before you start Eclipse, start Eclipse, open your debug
configuration and choose the debugger tab. Then in the “Debugger
Options” area, “ If this addresses your problem, that’s
good and I don’t need to see your project any more. If not, I will
still need to see the project to go further. Hope this helps, Bill From: photran-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx
