returned non-zero status.
DEPENDENCIES
• Setting breakpoints in shared libraries is not supported.
adb does not read the linker symbol table for shared libraries, and cannot access locations in shared
libraries by name. In a stack backtrace ($c), adb does not know the names of shared library pro-
cedures.
If the core file was created when the program was in a shared library function, the $c command does
not work. When a stack backtrace for the core file encounters a shared library procedure on the stack it
aborts at that point.
• A leading zero by itself is not recognized as a radix indicator. Use the prefixes 0o or 0O (zero-oh) to
force interpretation in octal radix. The prefixes 0t and 0T are also accepted to force interpretation in
decimal radix. Thus 0o20 = 0t16 = sixteen. A hexadecimal number whose most significant digit
would otherwise be an alphabetic character may begin with a leading zero instead of 0x (or 0X), if the
default radix is hexadecimal.
• The $f command prints floating point registers as 32-bit single precision and
$F prints these registers
as 64-bit doubles.
•
$R prints all registers available to adb users.
• The :x and :S commands are not currently supported.
• adb can be used to inspect relocatable object files; it reads the symbol table and sets up the appropriate
mappings for text and data. Note that relocatable object files do not necessarily contain an exact image
of the initialized data; however, if this is the case, the data mapping is not set.
