How do I debug a global object in a DLL??

How do I debug a global object in a DLL??

[Mark Paulus]

Hi,

I have this problem where I am defining a global object
within a dll, but somehow that global definition is not
making it into the main executable.  Everything works
fine if the program is statically bound, but I want to know
how to go about debugging the program initialization
steps, to see where the problem with this global
objects constructor....

Thanks.

Did you export the variable from the DLL?

Yes, it is being exported.  I have put a -Wl,-export-all-symbols in
the .dll link step, and when I look in the .def file (I have
also added a -Wl,-output-def=<file> statement).
