Title: Debuging C code on android with gdb ? [Print This Page] Author: cmi Time: 7/26/2017 10:41 Title: Debuging C code on android with gdb ? I am attempting to debug the android native code using gdb over adb. However when trying to load a file to debug i get a error
"/home/dan/proj/firefly-rk3399/out/target/product/rk3399_firefly_box/symbols/system/bin/service": not in executable format: File format not recognized
Copy the code
from what Ive been able to find in order to debug this adding LOCAL_CFLAGS += -ggdb and LOCAL_STRIP_MODULE = false to android.mk is required. however i am not sure im adding to the correct android.mk file. ive added it to /frameworks/native/cmds/android.mk
Id like to know if i am adding those flags to the correct android.mk file or
if there is a diffrent debug procedure (that allows me to create breakpoints and step through code)
