Associating source to a running program

Associating source to a running program

[Olivier Parisy]

Hi,

I'm trying to step through a gcj-compiled java program.

I get outputs such as this one:
(gdb) step
JvRunMain (klass=0xf3c310, argc=1, argv=0x33ec8)
     at /home/olivier/gcj/w32gcc/src/gcc/libjava/prims.cc:1552
1552    /home/olivier/gcj/w32gcc/src/gcc/libjava/prims.cc: No such file 
or directory.
         in /home/olivier/gcj/w32gcc/src/gcc/libjava/prims.cc
Current language:  auto; currently c++

This makes sense, as prims.cc is probably part of libjava runtime, and 
was only available at gcc/gcj compilation, but not during program execution.

Considering that this source code is available elsewhere on the file 
system, how can I specify to GDB where it can find it?

Best regards,
Olivier Parisy.

The "dir" command should probably do what you need. You can find more
information in the GDB users manual.

Yes, this is what I needed. Thank you!
