Description Jérôme Glisse 2012-04-16 19:49:20 UTC

If executing the following gdb script, gdb quit the program on the finish command while i expect it should finish the current function

file ls
set $myvar = 1
break indent
set $myvar = 0
finish
set $myvar = 1
continue
end
r

Comment 1 Jan Kratochvil 2012-04-16 19:58:45 UTC

Assuming you should have put "commands" after "break".

Finish does not work in command lists, it should work as:

file ls
set $myvar = 1
break indent
commands
  set $myvar = 0
  up
  tbreak
  commands
    set $myvar = 1
    continue
  end
  continue
end
r

Untested, maybe also some "silent" should be there as it will be talkative this way.

The problem is GDB commands get executed on a single stop, "finish" resumes execution, execution resume can be always only the last command of a sequence.
