Forgive the ignorance level for the following question
I am using gdb for debugging an embedded C application.
I can call numerous embedded functions and pass parameters to it, add
breakpoints and step
through the code - so far so good.
Some of the functions return values as part of their functionality
as in
int MYFUNCTION ( suppliedparam, rtndparam)
{
some code ......
return (rtndparam)
}
The question is
How do I get to get the value of returned parameters output to the command line.
i.e in the above example I want to know what the value of rtndparam is
Any pointers greatly appreciated
Malcolm

Place a breakpoint on the return statement, run the program and at the
breakpoint, type "print rtndparam".
