gdb无法在Mac OS X 10.10中打开已编译的python

Question

I can't open my compiled Python file in my Mac OS X 10.10 in gdb .

I tried these two options to open the file but it still not work:

p0sxs-iMac:~ p0sx$ gdb --args /usr/bin/python 

Giving the error:

Error message from gdb: not in executable format: File format not recognized

Second option:

gdb --args python ./ReaFile.py 

Giving the error:

Error message from gdb : not in executable format: File format not recognized

Hope someone can help me.

It seems like gdb is not capable of running a Universal binary. See post:

• https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2011-11/msg00133.html

file /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures /usr/bin/python (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64 /usr/bin/python (for architecture i386): Mach-O executable i386

Is there a way to build gdb to work around this?

No. Currently gdb is not able to debug fat binary. Use lipo to extract the architecture you want to use.
