Subject: add-symbol-file parsing
Date: Fri, 29 Nov 2002 02:54:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021129105448.GF598@laptop.6bone.nl> (raw)

Unlike the documentation says the 'address' argument to 'add-symbol-file'
is not parsed as an expression but directly as an address.

The following commands ...

(gdb) set $text_addr = 0xdeadc0de
(gdb) add-symbol-file /dir/symbol.file $text_addr

.. will end up setting the address to 0 by strtoul down in the code path.

The above will therefor not work. Is there another way I can achieve this?

If this is not possible (in another way) will patches be accepted to make
this an expression?

Mark
