what is the $cdir and $cwd?

[gan_xiao_jun]

Is the $cwd the current working directory of the
target?
And the $cdir the directory is in which the source
file was compiled into object code?
And how the $cdir save to obj files (add -g when
compile or others flags)?
Sometime even I use -g,
when I use
strings file.o
I also can't find the source file name in the result,
it that mean the source file name is not contained in
file.o?
                                                      
                         
How can I control the directory saved to obj files as
absolute path or relative
path?

Thanks in advance
gan

I haven't used $cwd in remote debugging, but I think it should be the
current working directory on the host.

Yes.

At least -g seems to do that.

Seems that strings does not scan debugging sections by default; try
"strings -a file.o".

Use absolute or relative path at the gcc command line.


With kind regards,
