how to recompile with "-g" option to use debug tool, gdb

Hi,

"-g" flag will be added automatically, if you compile Yade
in debug-mode [1]. Our Makefile is generating dynamically
by cmake and is dependent on parameters, which you input
during configuration step.

Best regards

Thank you for quick replying.

I could compile with "-g" flag.

Then, I want to execute YADE by debug mode.
Can I execute YADE in debug mode for step-wise execution and break points?
I expected I could use gdb for C++ debug or pdb for python debug.

Thanks,

Masayuki

Never did it, sorry. I use such a mode if I want to get
some more backtrace information. If you find such a
way, please let us know.

As you said I'm beginner of Yade.
kdevelop is nice though I am struggling to use it.
I'll try to read the code with it.

Thank you so much for answering about very basic question.

Thanks Bruno Chareyre, that solved my question.
