Is it a DDD Bug?

Before sending in a bug report, try to find out whether the problem cause really lies within DDD. A common cause of problems are incomplete or missing X or Mtif installations, for instance, or bugs in the X server or Mtif itself. Running DDD as

     $ 

**Illegal HTML tag removed :** ddd --check-configuration

     

checks for common problems and gives hints on how to repair them.

Another potential cause of problems is the inferior debugger; occasionally, they show bugs, too. To find out whether a bug was caused by the inferior debugger, run DDD as

     $ 

**Illegal HTML tag removed :** ddd --trace

     

This shows the interaction between DDD and the inferior debugger on standard error while DDD is running. (If --trace is not given, this interaction is logged in the file ~/.ddd/log; see Logging) Compare the debugger output to the output of DDD and determine which one is wrong.
