[exim-dev] GDB step by step exim

Hi exim devs,

I’d like to understand better how exim processes EHLO messages. Ideally, I could use gdb to set a breakpoint and step through from wherever I want. Unfortunately, exim just ignores any breakpoints... it hits them for sure, bc I see the print stmts. It must have to do with exims threading. I tried detach-on-fork off, but no luck.

Please help: HOW TO DEBUG EXIM?

Thanks,

Dennis
