Subject: GDB loses running state of inferior
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 00:17:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jeskpmzcut.fsf@sykes.suse.de> (raw)

When an error occurs during startup of the child the running state of
the child is lost and gdb is refusing to continue it:

(gdb) b *0
Breakpoint 1 at 0x0
(gdb) r
Starting program: /bin/cat 
Warning:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Error accessing memory address 0x0: Input/output error.

(gdb) c
Continuing.
Cannot execute this command while the selected thread is running.

Andreas.
