Debug ppc program with gdb on Macbook Pro
First, open a Terminal, and export OAH_GDB=YES (for bash)
Start your ppc program, if it's universal binary, use /usr/libexec/oah/translate <program_name_with_path>
Now you will see "Starting Unix GDB Session\n Listening"
Then you can start gdb with "gdb -oah" in another Terminal.
And attach the process of your program.
Can't it be simpler?
