Comments (lines starting with <kbd>#</kbd>) may +also be included. An empty line in a command file does nothing; it +does not mean to repeat the last command, as it would from the +terminal. +</p> +<p>You can request the execution of a command file with the <code>source</code> +command. Note that the <code>source</code> command is also used to evaluate +scripts that are not Command Files. The exact behavior can be configured +using the <code>script-extension</code> setting. +See <a href="Extending-GDB.html#Extending-GDB">Extending GDB</a>. +</p> +<dl compact="compact"> +<dd><a name="index-source"></a> +<a name="index-execute-commands-from-a-file"></a> +</dd> +<dt><code>source [-s] [-v] <var>filename</var></code></dt> +<dd><p>Execute the command file <var>filename</var>. +</p></dd> +</dl> + +<p>The lines in a command file are generally executed sequentially, +unless the order of execution is changed by one of the +<em>flow-control commands</em> described below. The commands are not +printed as they are executed. An error in any command terminates +execution of the command file and control is returned to the console. +</p> +<p><small>GDB</small> first searches for <var>filename</var> in the current directory. +If the file is not found there, and <var>filename</var> does not specify a +directory, then <small>GDB</small> also looks for the file on the source search path +(specified with the ‘<samp>directory</samp>’ command); +except that <samp>$cdir</samp> is not searched because the compilation directory +is not relevant to scripts. +</p> +<p>If <code>-s</code> is specified, then <small>GDB</small> searches for <var>filename</var> +on the search path even if <var>filename</var> specifies a directory. +The search is done by appending <var>filename</var> to each element of the +search path. So, for example, if <var>filename</var> is <samp>mylib/myscript</samp> +and the search path contains <samp>/home/user</samp> then <small>GDB</small> will +look for the script <samp>/home/user/mylib/myscript</samp>. +The search is also done if <var>filename</var> is an absolute path. +For example, if <var>filename</var> is <samp>/tmp/myscript</samp> and +the search path contains <samp>/home/user</samp> then <small>GDB</small> will +look for the script <samp>/home/user/tmp/myscript</samp>. +For DOS-like systems, if <var>filename</var> contains a drive specification, +it is stripped before concatenation. For example, if <var>filename</var> is +<samp>d:myscript</samp> and the search path contains <samp>c:/tmp</samp> then <small>GDB</small> +will look for the script <samp>c:/tmp/myscript</samp>. +</p> +<p>If <code>-v</code>, for verbose mode, is given then <small>GDB</small> displays +each command as it is executed. The option must be given before +<var>filename</var>, and is interpreted as part of the filename anywhere else. +</p> +<p>Commands that would ask for confirmation if used interactively proceed +without asking when used in a command file. Many <small>GDB</small> commands that +normally print messages to say what they are doing omit the messages +when called from command files. +</p> +<p><small>GDB</small> also accepts command input from standard input. In this +mode, normal output goes to standard output and error output goes to +standard error. Errors in a command file supplied on standard input do +not terminate execution of the command file—execution continues with +the next command. +</p> +<div class="smallexample"> +<pre class="smallexample">gdb < cmds > log 2>&1 +</pre></div> + +<p>(The syntax above will vary depending on the shell used.) This example +will execute commands from the file <samp>cmds</samp>. All output and errors +would be directed to <samp>log</samp>. +</p> +<p>Since commands stored on command files tend to be more general than +commands typed interactively, they frequently need to deal with +complicated situations, such as different or unexpected values of +variables and symbols, changes in how the program being debugged is +built, etc. <small>GDB</small> provides a set of flow-control commands to +deal with these complexities. Using these commands, you can write +complex scripts that loop over data structures, execute commands +conditionally, etc. +</p> +<dl compact="compact"> +<dd><a name="index-if"></a> +<a name="index-else"></a> +</dd> +<dt><code>if</code></dt> +<dt><code>else</code></dt> +<dd><p>This command allows to include in your script conditionally executed +commands. The <code>if</code> command takes a single argument, which is an +expression to evaluate. It is followed by a series of commands that +are executed only if the expression is true (its value is nonzero). +There can then optionally be an <code>else</code> line, followed by a series +of commands that are only executed if the expression was false. The +end of the list is marked by a line containing <code>end</code>. +</p> +<a name="index-while"></a> +</dd> +<dt><code>while</code></dt> +<dd><p>This command allows to write loops. Its syntax is similar to +<code>if</code>: the command takes a single argument, which is an expression +to evaluate, and must be followed by the commands to execute, one per +line, terminated by an <code>end</code>. These commands are called the +<em>body</em> of the loop. The commands in the body of <code>while</code> are +executed repeatedly as long as the expression evaluates to true. +</p> +<a name="index-loop_005fbreak"></a> +</dd> +<dt><code>loop_break</code></dt> +<dd><p>This command exits the <code>while</code> loop in whose body it is included. +Execution of the script continues after that <code>while</code>s <code>end</code> +line. +</p> +<a name="index-loop_005fcontinue"></a> +</dd> +<dt><code>loop_continue</code></dt> +<dd><p>This command skips the execution of the rest of the body of commands +in the <code>while</code> loop in whose body it is included.
