C.6.1 Installed System-wide Configuration Scripts

The system-gdbinit directory, located inside the data-directory (as specified by --with-gdb-datadir at configure time) contains a number of scripts which can be used as system-wide init files. To automatically source those scripts at startup, GDB should be configured with --with-system-gdbinit. Otherwise, any user should be able to source them by hand as needed.

The following scripts are currently available:

  • elinos.py This script is useful when debugging a program on an ELinOS target. It takes advantage of the environment variables defined in a standard ELinOS environment in order to determine the location of the system shared libraries, and then sets the ‘solib-absolute-prefix’ and ‘solib-search-path’ variables appropriately.
  • wrs-linux.py This script is useful when debugging a program on a target running Wind River Linux. It expects the ENV_PREFIX to be set to the host-side sysroot used by the target system.
