Does GDB support Stepping into a Specific function, say either f
or g
, on lines containing expressions of nested function calls such as
f(g());
similar to what Visual Studio 2010 support. Maybe a GDB script is the solution?
Does GDB support Stepping into a Specific function
No. If you want to step into g
, a simple step
should do it. If you want to step into f
, do step
, finish
, step
.
You are welcome to file a feature request in GDB bugzilla, though I doubt Step into Specific
can be reasonably implemented in a CLI debugger.
