Re: [Help/Hint]: gdb output analysis

If you get a SEGV in strlen, it is typically because you
call it with a bad pointer (null pointer, not addressable memory, ...)
or with a pointer to a non null terminated string and strlen then
goes too far and reaches an not addressable page.

You should 'Type <return>' to continue and examine the callstack
and the variables/args in the call stack.
As strlen is called by libcurl, you should look at how your application
calls libcurl.

The gdb command
  bt full 
will show you the full stack trace with args and local variables.

Good luck
