I agree 100% with "never crash." We should at least trap the exception.

I'm going to need hand holding for that.

Here is the problem font
I am willing to try using gdb from the command line.
But after reading the Development/How to debug I am no wiser.
At this point I need step by step Terminal instructions.
As a starter so far this is what I have done following previous advice:
(0) A successful regular 3.3.2 build
(1) As advised by Jonathan Aquilina <eagles051387 at gmail.com>
cd git/libo
source MacOSXX86Env.Set.sh
cd sc
make -sr clean #build told me to use make -sr
make -sr debug=true
Do I still need to do this?
(2) $ cd git/libo
# then do as advised by Michael
$ source MacOSXX86Env.Set.sh
$ cd vcl
$ rm -Rf *.pro # the output directory [unxmacxi - editor]
$ build debug=true
Anyway what is vcl?
(3) Now what?
As a comment in passing is there a block diagram of the overall architecture?
e.g. the 19 repos mentioned in the dev doc. I can grock pictures better than text.
I find the learning curve for the folklore pretty steep. <smile>.
respect....
