Subject: gdb command line option -e or -exec usage
Date: Fri, 12 Feb 2010 03:42:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E2E3C92B1E0AB4468F79FC237074B248274A4D096D@GVW1116EXC.americas.hpqcorp.net> (raw)

Hi,

I have invoked gdb with '-e' command line option on an executable, 
The gdb manual says '-e' is used to set the executable to run.
But I could not see the symbols read in by gdb when I use -e and could
not insert breakpoints.

What is the intent of having the command line option "-e" or "-exec"?

Thanks & Regards,
Ajay
