i am using JclDebug in my Delphi app to track exceptions and call
stacks.
JCL is supposed to fully support FPC, but I am having hard time making
it work. For one, it does not look like JCL supports DGB files
generated by FPC.
Did anybody use JclDebug/JclHookExcept in FPC? Any tips?

Thank you!

It looks like I shoudl use -Xm compiler switch to generate a MAP file:

How do I do that?

Delphi and FPC map files are completely different. I suppose this part
of JCL will not work for you (of course if you will not rewrite it).

Bummer :-(
Do you know of any other FPC-compatible library that would let me
firgure out the source code location and call stack given an exception
data?
Since I cannot debug in Lazarus a dll loaded by a host process,
analyzing  an exception log is pretty much my only option...

Thank you!

Maybe better we will implement dll debugging in Lazarus? Imo it is not
a really big problem since gdb can attach to process to debug it. We
only need to know pid. Gdb also can switch between threads to debug.
Only Lazarus is missing appropriate interface to that things.
