[yocto] GDB related issue on host machine

[Vinay Kumar. G]

Hi,

I am new to this forum. I am facing some difficulties in debugging a.out
on host os(without target connection). Using "powerpc-poky-linux-gdb a.out".

Once entered to gdb did below steps
set sysroot /home/../ppc/sysroots/ppc7400-poky-linux
file a.out
b main
continue  > shows message The program is not being run.

If I execute "run" gives "The program is not being run."

Any help is appreciated. :)
Thanks.
