Option | Description |
---|---|
--help-h | List command line arguments |

GDB Operation: |
De-Referencing STL Containers: |
Displaying STL container classes using the GDB "p variable-name" results in an cryptic display of template definitions and pointers. Use the following ~/. file (V1.03 09/15/08). Now works with GDB 4.3+.
(Archived versions: [ GDB 6.4+ only]) Thanks to for permission to post this script.Use the following commands provided by the script:
Data type | GDB command |
---|---|
std::vector<T> | pvector stl_variable |
std::list<T> | plist stl_variable T |
std::map<T,T> | pmap stl_variable |
