| |
| <p>The <span class="sc">gdb</span> command <code>file</code> lets you choose with program to debug. |
| |
| <pre class="smallexample"> (gdbslet) file prog |
| </pre> |
| <p><span class="sc">gdb</span> then attempts to read the symbol table of <samp><span class="file">prog</span></samp>. |
| <span class="sc">gdb</span> locates |
| the file by searching the directories listed in the command search |
| path. |
| If the file was compiled with debug information (option ‘<samp><span class="samp">-g</span></samp>’), source |
| files will be searched as well. |
| <span class="sc">gdb</span> locates |
| the source files by searching the directories listed in the directory search |
| path (see <a href="Environment.html#Environment">Your Program's Environment</a>). |
| If it fails |
| to find a file, it displays a message such as: |
| |
| <pre class="smallexample"> prog: No such file or directory. |
| </pre> |
| <p>When this happens, add the appropriate directories to the search paths with |
| the <span class="sc">gdb</span> commands <code>path</code> and <code>dir</code>, and execute the |
| <code>target</code> command again. |
