>Description:
gdb can't print variables in common. It appears to try reading a low memory address related to the variable offset in the common, ie, the offset to the start of the common is neglected.
Sample program:
program xxx
common /x/ a,b
a = 47
b = 2
end
compile with "g77 -g -O0 -o xxx xxx.f"
debug with: "gdb xxx"
gdb commands: [ Output:]
------------------------------------------------------
break MAIN__
run
step
step
print a [Error accessing memory address 0x8: Invalid argument.]
print &a [$1 = (PTR TO -> ( real*4 )) 0x8]
print &x_ [$2 = (PTR TO -> ( char (0:7))) 0x1400001d0]
print (real) x_ [$3 = 47]
Clearly, gdb is aware of variable "a", but has the wrong address for it.
