Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has a ``shortcut icon'' file I can add to GDB's
web page. The image, I guess, should be some sort of simplified Archer
Fish.
enjoy,
Andrew

Hi,
I am reading the GDB's source codes, and see the word "inferior process"
many times (e.g. in gdb/inferior.h). But i don't understand what this
really means.
Is "inferior process" a child process or a parent process, or something
else?
BTW, i only see function lin_lwp_resume() in gdb/lin-lwp.c, and wonder
how to call/use this function.
Thank you.

The inferior is the process being debugged, however many threads or
LWPs it may be.

It's called via to_resume in the target stack.
