How to debug programms written in fasm under linux using gdb?

Question

I wrote simple "hello, world" in fasm, and its works, but how i can generate debug info for gdb and edb (Evan's Debugger)? Fasm compiler could only produce debugging symbols in its specific format - "fas", which of course gbd couldn't understood.

Answer 1

It's not possible at the moment. GDB does not understand the .fas format so you first need to convert the .fas file to DWARF, but no such converter exists. Tomasz has asked for help with format converters so if you feel you're up for the task you should give it a shot.
