Hi, friends!
My name is Jose Miguel and I am trying to get the value of cdir. I mean, if I
type
show directories
I get
Source directories searched: $cdir:$cwd
but, I cannot find out the way to get the values of those directories. The
print command doesn't seem to work. Any idea?
Thank you indeed.
PD: sorry if I made mistakes with my English.

I just hit the same problem:
(gdb) print $cdir
$1 = void
doesn't help. Anyone?

There is no way to do it. $cdir isn't a convenience variable, because
there's no way for convenience variables to represent strings today.
It's just text substitution in the source path searching.

So, is there any way to work with absolute paths? I mean, if I'm debugging a
program
mcore-elf-gdb sample.elf
and I type
info sources
I get no information about paths
main.c, set_led.c
This is always that way although executable file and sources are in different
directories. I know gdb knows where to find the source files because if I
type
info source main
gdb asks me
Current source file is main.c
Compilation directory is /home/matt/proyecto/gnusample
Located in /home/matt/proyecto/gnusample/main.c
Then, my question is if there's a way to get something like
info sources
/home/matt/proyecto/gnusample/main.c, /home/matt/proyecto/gnusample/set_led.c
I'm trying to make a front end for gdb, so if I want to show the source files
I need to know where to find them.
Thanks.
Jose Miguel

I recommend you use GDB 6.2, and the MI command
-file-list-exec-source-files. You want the "fullname" portion of the
output.

That's exactly what I want. Thank you very much.
