[Bf-committers] Please help me debugging

[Xavier Thomas]

Hi,

If you are new to debugging I recommend to use QTCreator like described
here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Ideasman42/CMakeQTCreatorLinux

It has a very nice integrated GUI to gdb, easy to use and still powerfull.
Here is the documentation:
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator-2.3/creator-debugging.html

It also have a very nice GUI for Valgrind memcheck and callgrind utils.
