O'Reilly's "Programming with GNU Software" has a chapter devoted to using GDB: Chapter 6. Debugging C and C++ Programs Compilation for gdb Starting gdb Basic gdb Commands Variable Scope and Context Moving Up and Down the Call Stack C++ Programs Interface to Emacs Command Completion and Abbreviations Attaching to an Existing Process Quick Reference I have not read the book, so I can not comment on the quality, but I have read good reviews. Caveat emptor. >I found one book called "Debugging with GDB Version >4.17" by Stallman. Is this any good, or is it just the gdb info pages >printed out? Yes - the FSF sells hardcopy versions of the manuals to raise money. IMHO, the GDB info pages are quite good.
