Subject: calling glibc mallinfo() from GDB after attaching to a process?
Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2004 02:09:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4133DDC2.3040403@sendmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I would like to attach to a running program, issue a call to the glibc 
mallinfo() function, display the returned mallinfo structure, and the 
continue execution of the program. The idea here is to grab some malloc 
statistics from a running program... Is this kind of thing possible? If 
so, can someone offer up some clues as to the GDB commands to issue to 
do this?

Chris
