Re: The step-Over (next) command seems repetitively displaying same statement execution

Hello Eli,

I am sorry, I forgot to mention that.

Compilation command is: " gcc hello.c -g " thats it.
gcc version is: 4.6.3
gdb version is: GNU gdb (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.4-2012.04-0ubuntu2.1) 7.4-2012.04

Thanks,
- Jitendra Pawar
