From: webquinty quinty To: gdb@sourceware.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-SW-Source: 2013-03/txt/msg00062.txt.bz2 Hello, As you known, with GDB it is possible to obtain debug information from executable. For example in GDB you can ask about type of var: -> whatis var <- type = unsigned char I just finished a frontend to extract debug information from a process using GDB/MI but the response is different than when I use GDB. For example, a struct called 'par' GDB return me type=param_typ but GDB/MI return me anonimous struct. Why? Best regards
