core dump analysis

In Getting a backtrace from a coredump, it shows the tools for getting backtraces from coredumps.

Recently, my stuff asks me what is the procedure to get the reason that a program generates coredump in an AIX 5.3 machine.

# dbx <program generates="" the="" coredump=""> <coredump file="">

then the reason will be shown and which function/line generates the coredump.


Here is another post that show similar information.
It is interesting for me.
So I get involved to study whether to get such information in various platform.

btw, is there any tool to show such information in various platform ?
