What are the configuration options available in GDB?
GDB, the GNU Debugger, offers various configuration options to customize its behavior. You can set options like 'set pagination' to control output paging, 'set print frame-arguments' to adjust how function arguments are displayed, and many more. Would you like to know about a specific option?
Yes, what does 'set pagination' do?
The 'set pagination' option in GDB controls whether the output is paginated. If set to 'on', GDB will pause output after each screenful, allowing you to read it. If set to 'off', all output will be displayed at once. You can toggle it using the command 'set pagination on' or 'set pagination off'.
Are there any other useful configuration options I should know about?
Absolutely! Some other useful options include 'set print pretty on' for better formatted output, 'set breakpoint pending' to allow breakpoints on functions that are not yet loaded, and 'set logging on' to save GDB output to a file. Would you like details on any specific option?
Yes, tell me more about 'set logging'.
The 'set logging' option allows you to log GDB session output to a file. When you enable it with 'set logging on', all commands and output will be saved to 'gdb.txt' by default. You can specify a different filename using 'set logging file <filename>'. This is useful for keeping a record of your debugging sessions.
