    gcc and strace

    I'm trying to debug a program (part where I free the memory in a loop) but it doesn't crash when I step trough it using gdb but when I try not to step trough it it crashes giving me a core dump, I've hurd you could use strace for finding out the reason but I don't understand the man page for it and how do you acces a core dump from gdb since I could probably use it to find out why it crashes aswell...
    They say that if you play a Windows Install CD backwords, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing; play it forward and it installs Windows.

    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
