Re: [gnome-love] Debugging option in evince



I was trying to see what happens when I open a test case pdf using evince with the debug options. Thanks for the suggestions :)

Hi Eejya,

what are you trying to debug exactly?
I know many people use nemiver, although I was not able to use it myself... You can give it a try.
I tried gdb at some point and managed to run it with the following:

libtool --mode=execute gdb --args ./shell/evince

Other than that, I was mostly going for memory checking. The EV_PROFILER flag (or something like this) helped a lot, together with valgrind.

Cheers,
Giselle

Hi,
I tried enabling the debug option in evince by using the following command:
./configure --enable-debug in the ~/jhbuild/checkout/evince folder.
I then set the EV_DEBUG_JOBS flag to 1 while running evince something like:
EV_DEBUG_JOBS=1 evince [path to the pdf/pdfname.pdf]
However onĀ  closing the window nothing is shown on the terminal.
What could be the problem?
Appreciate the help :)
