I hope Igor will be pleased that I first posted in a g++ forum about reading
executable images.

I was referred to STABS, DWARF, DWARFv2 and v3 and
http://www.eagercon.com/dwarf/dwarf3std.htm and
http://reality.sgi.com/davea/dwarf.html.

What is the relationship between cygwin, windows and these formats and
libraries? Can I use these linux libraries to read debug information in
images created with g++ on cygwin?

If not, how do I read the debug information in images created with g++ on
cygwin?

Thanks,
Siegfried
