Question

Xcode 4. So I can do p something to print a variable. What else I can do?

Answer 1

Because you obviously don't want anything complete but only some pointers, you can

• list: list the lines around current position
• list -: list lines before that
• just enter: do the same thing again
• cont: continue
• break 'Class::method()': set a breakpoint
• run: run the program from the start
• start: run and stop in main()
• kill: kill the running program
• fin: continue until the function returns
• up/down: go up/down one stack frame
• bt: get the backtrace
• t a a bt (thread apply all bt): get a backtrace for all threads
• step: run until different code line (descending into functions)
• next: run until different code line (skipping over functions)
• commands: set automatic actions on breakpoints
• en/dis/del: enable/disable/delete breakpoints
• catch throw: enable breaking when an exception is thrown
• return <value>: force the function to return now and return <value>
• set pagination off: disable --- More --- prompt
• set history save on
• set history filename /home/<user>/.gdb_history (both of those at best in /home/<user>/.gdbinit)
• ... and ... help: get help about any gdb command

So far my random collection.
