[bug #25243] Art backend Seg Faults

[Fred Kiefer]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #25243 (project gnustep):

Now getting the backtrace is the hard bit and you managed that already :-)

To get gdb to print out the value of a locally visible variable you just type
"p" and the name of that variable. In your case

p face

If you want to print the value of an object (which face isn't) you use "po".

Debugging the function is only slightly harder. First you need to get gdb to
stop in that function. For this you use "b" to define a break point. I suggest
using

b ftfont.m:144

This gets gdb to stop on an interesting line in that function. Next you use
"p" to print out everything interesting and get gdb going again with "c". It
will come back to that function multiple times and the last time is the most
interesting one.

to get the value of face printed out here you will need to use

p *pface

Thank you for your effort.
