This page is a work in progress. Any helpful additions are appreciated, and the page can be cleaned up for formatting later.

Make sure you have compiled with debugging symbols: ./configure --debug before make. It also helps to set --prefix to some testing location that you can install to.
Make sure you have a short test file to interpret, bind, or translate to help narrow down your bug. Smaller is better.
Try debugging your code in Euphoria first. Trace your code with the built-in Euphoria debugger. Check the output of the Euphoria disassembler and make sure the IL code is correct.
In gdb, use the following command to print the value of Euphoria objects:

(gdb) print StdPrint( 1, _some_eu_object_12345, 1 ) 
3735928549 
$1 = void 
(gdb) print/x 3735928549 
$2 = 0xdeadbee5

To do: Add a function in be_runtime.c that allows a gdb user to display information about a Euphoria object and use it in an expression as a value.
