If any internal dbx warning appears it's shown in pop-up window and can easily confuse a user as it looks like no future work with dbx is impossible. Whereas it's just a warning and nothing prevents dbx from working properly. e.g. in CR: 6929322 dbx error window appears with the message: dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfd982000[16384] of size 0 in core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfd9c3000[16384] of size 0 in core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfebf1000[16384] of size 0 in core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfd982000[16384] of size 0 in core Too many errors ... At the same time dbx console shows: For information about new features see `help changes' To remove this message, put `dbxenv suppress_startup_message 7.8' in your .dbxrc (dbx) debug - /export/home/tester/SunStudioProjects/Fractal_2/core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfd982000[16384] of size 0 in core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfd9c3000[16384] of size 0 in core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfebf1000[16384] of size 0 in core Corefile specified executable: "/export/home/tester/SunStudioProjects/Fractal_2/dist/Debug/OracleSolarisStudio-Solaris-x86/fractal_2" Reading fractal_2 dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfd982000[16384] of size 0 in core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfd9c3000[16384] of size 0 in core dbx: internal warning: writable memory segment 0xfebf1000[16384] of size 0 in core core file header read successfully Reading ld.so.1 Reading er_sync.so Reading er_heap.so Reading libcollector.so Reading libCstd.so.1 Reading libCrun.so.1 Reading libm.so.2 Reading libc.so.1 Reading libdl.so.1 program terminated by signal FPE (integer divide by zero) Current function is Mandelbrot (dbx) cd /export/home/tester/SunStudioProjects/Fractal_2 (dbx) runargs (dbx) intercept -set -unhandled, -unexpected (dbx) cd /export/home/tester/SunStudioProjects/Fractal_2 (dbx)
The confusion arising from this specific scenario is addressed in CR 6929322 against dbx. I'm of the opinion that any other confusing error messages also have to be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Ergo, there's no general purpose fix to be made.
