Stack Trace: MEX crash Seg Fault

Hi Everyone,

I have looked but can't find an answer. What do the numbers mean next to my function name in my stack trace (in bold):

BoundingBoxComparision +000009

I am trying to debug the C file to find the segmentation fault but can't seem to find it. I was hoping that the trace might hide the answer.

Thanks,

Will

In the example,

BoundingBoxComparision +000009

the number indicates that the address is 9 further than the defined symbol BoundingBoxComparision.

In the context of a stack trace, this would indicate 9 bytes (or possibly 9 words) into the routine named BoundingBoxComparision . But more generally in debugging, memory addresses for data might be displayed as an offset from a symbol that has been declared "global" or "extern". Some debuggers are also able to give offsets relative to variables that are on stack frames.
