Fork vs GDB

Greetings,

Does anyone knows how to debug a program which fork. It seems that gdb doesn't allow us to debug the child processes without calling 'sleep' in the child, and attach it to gdb (Except on HP-UX, but I choose to use Linux ;-)) ?

Tnx.

Julien,

I had this question awhile back. Your solution with sleep is the only option, unless you wish to add support for another method.
