Enabling Debugging</A>
</H1>
To compile this tool with debugging enabled, type in:
<PRE>
make debug=yes
</PRE>
This will create an executable with debugging symbols (i.e., compiled
with the <TT>-g</TT> option), useful for debugging it with gdb; it
will also compile the tool using the <TT>-DDEBUG</TT> compiler flag,
which defines the preprocessor symbol <TT>DEBUG</TT> during the
compilation. In this way, you may isolate code to be executed only
when compiling with the debug option typically as follows:
<PRE>
#ifdef DEBUG
/* Code compiled in only when debug=yes */
#endif
</PRE>
The debugging executable will be placed in:
<PRE>
shared_debug_obj/ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-gnu-gnu-xgps
</PRE>
this allows you to keep both the debugging and the not-debugging
executables, since they are in different trees.
To install the debugging version, type <TT>make debug=yes install</TT>
(note: this will overwrite the not-debugging version, if any,
in the installation directory; only one can be installed at a time).
To clean the debugging version, type <TT>make debug=yes clean</TT>.
