Subject: How to show the file being executed?
Date: Sat, 20 Feb 2010 12:26:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100220122449.GA9150@geppetto> (raw)

Hi all,

I'm running gdb 7.0 and first of all let me thank you, it's simply
*AWESOME*, reversible debugging and scripting are some features we
always dreamt for, and now they're finally available to all the free
world, thanks!!

I have a small problem, I need to show the name of the file debugged
in a gdb script, and info target looks overkill as it shows too much
information.

(gdb) show version

(gdb) info target
Symbols from "/home/stefano/src/PROGRAM".
Unix child process:
	Using the running image of child Thread 0xb5f33b70 (LWP 8998).
	While running this, GDB does not access memory from...
Local exec file:
	`/home/stefano/src/PROGRAM', file type elf32-i386.
	Entry point: 0x804bc70
	0x08048134 - 0x08048147 is .interp
	0x08048148 - 0x08048168 is .note.ABI-tag
	0x08048168 - 0x0804818c is .note.gnu.build-id
        [...]

There is some way to show *only* this information?, otherwise I suggest
to implement a show file command.

Regards.
