Re: 64 bit mode on aix

Thanks for the reply,
But I was not sure of what you meant by binary, is it the application
binary or the gdb binary itself ?
I tried compiling application with -q64 option and tried debugging with
gdb, which did not succeed.
If you are suggesting to compile gdb itself with -q64 option, I think it
just compiles the gdb source in 64 bit mode.  What I need is this: is there any 
way to instruct gdb that we are using a 64 bit architecture on aix ?

Thanks and regards,
Asvija
