Subject: How to get convenience variables in python?
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2010 16:25:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <557747.52347.qm@web56807.mail.re3.yahoo.com> (raw)

I'd like to get to convenience variables without first having to print them.

But currently, I have to do:

  gdb.execute("print argc")
  argc = gdb.history(0)

With the annoying side effect that argc gets printed.

It would be useful is to be able to do:

  gdb.execute("set $argc = argc")
  argc = gdb.convenience("$argc")
