1 GDB简介

GDB是GNU开源组织发布的一个强大的Linux下的程序调试工具。 一般来说，GDB主要帮助你完成下面四个方面的功能：

• 1、启动你的程序，可以按照你的自定义的要求随心所欲的运行程序（按着自己的想法运行）。
• 2、可让被调试的程序在你所指定的调置的断点处停住。（断点可以是条件表达式）
• 3、当程序被停住时，可以检查此时你的程序中所发生的事。
• 4、你可以改变你的程序，将一个BUG产生的影响修正从而测试其他BUG。

2 GDB基本命令

Here are some of the most frequently needed GDB commands:break [file:]functionSet a breakpoint at function (in file).断点run [arglist]Start your program (with arglist, if specified).bt  Backtrace: display the program stack.显示程序堆栈print exprDisplay the value of an expression.打印c   Continue running your program (after stopping, e.g. at abreakpoint).继续nextExecute next program line (after stopping); step over any functioncalls in the line.下一句edit [file:]function   查看当前停止的程序行。look at the program line where it is presently stopped.list [file:]function  键入程序的文本当程序停止了的位置type the text of the program in the vicinity of where it ispresently stopped.step Execute next program line (after stopping); step into any functioncalls in the line.  执行下一行help [name]Show information about GDB command name, or general informationabout using GDB.quitExit from GDB.You can, instead, specify a process ID as a second argument or use option "-p", if you want to debug a running process:gdb program 1234gdb -p 1234

3 GDB调试程序

示例：定位错误

代码

#include <stdio.h>#ifndef _CORE_void print()
{printf("hello world\n");
}
int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{int i;for (i = 0; i < 5; i++)printf("%d\n",i);print();return 0;
}#else
int main(int argc,const char *argv[])
{int *temp = NULL;*temp = 10;   //没有分配内存空间，直接会出错return 0;
}#endif
