Building packetdrill with DEBUG on

[Shivansh Rai]

I was trying to use the --debug option of packetdrill; although doing so produced an error stating -

error: --debug requires building with DEBUG on.

I looked into Makefile.common and found out that in the compilation step -g option is indeed included.

$(CC) -o packetdrill -g -static $(packetdrill-objs) $(packetdrill-ext-libs)

What is the correct way of compiling packetdrill with DEBUG on ?

Thank you.

Add -DDEBUG to the CFLAGS in Makefile.common

BTW, can you please clarify which version of packetdrill you are
using? It sounds like it might be:

https://github.com/nplab/packetdrill

I ask because that "--debug requires building with DEBUG on" message
is not part of the Google version of packetdrill, which is at:

https://github.com/google/packetdrill

I apologize for not noticing the difference, yes I'm currently using nplab/packetdrill.

Thanks.

It should be this version. We added a way that once you compile in debug support,
you can switch it on/off using a command line argument.
