define command

[Efim Monyak]

Hi all,

is where a possibility to define one counter or variable in the define 
command (user defined command).
I need to recognize is this command called first time or no. It is not 
possible for me to use arguments.

Thanks

Just pick an unobtrusive name for the variable, and use the new in GDB
6.5 "init-if-undefined" command.

sorry have clicked on reply and don't checked the address.

Is where a possibility to implement a similar functionality for GDB 
6.4.0 with no buggy features?

Assuming you only source the script with the define once:

set $__example_counter = 0
define example
   set $__example_counter += 1
end

I need evaluate this value also, I must recognize is the "example" 
function called first
time or no. But it is not possible to use the argument.
