[ILUG] Debugging a vmcore

[ILUG] Debugging a vmcore

Hi Conor, 

It's a good while since I've used gdb so at the risk of polluting the list 
with bad information, my understanding is that you can go 

gdb -core=mycore myexe.exe

I don't know if it makes sense to just pass a core file into gdb, does a core 
generally contain enough of the process image do analyse it meaningfully? 

You never know, maybe someday, someone on this list will answer a question for 
you:)
