When the program stops, - -@smallexample -^Z^Zstopped -@end smallexample - -is output. Before the @code{stopped} annotation, a variety of -annotations describe how the program stopped. - -@table @code -@findex exited -@item ^Z^Zexited @var{exit-status} -The program exited, and @var{exit-status} is the exit status (zero for -successful exit, otherwise nonzero). - -@findex signalled -@findex signal-name -@findex signal-name-end -@findex signal-string -@findex signal-string-end -@item ^Z^Zsignalled -The program exited with a signal. After the @code{^Z^Zsignalled}, the -annotation continues: - -@smallexample -@var{intro-text} -^Z^Zsignal-name -@var{name} -^Z^Zsignal-name-end -@var{middle-text} -^Z^Zsignal-string -@var{string} -^Z^Zsignal-string-end -@var{end-text} -@end smallexample - -@noindent -where @var{name} is the name of the signal, such as @code{SIGILL} or -@code{SIGSEGV}, and @var{string} is the explanation of the signal, such -as @code{Illegal Instruction} or @code{Segmentation fault}. -@var{intro-text}, @var{middle-text}, and @var{end-text} are for the -user's benefit and have no particular format. - -@findex signal -@item ^Z^Zsignal -The syntax of this annotation is just like @code{signalled}, but @value{GDBN} is -just saying that the program received the signal, not that it was -terminated with it. - -@findex breakpoint -@item ^Z^Zbreakpoint @var{number} -The program hit breakpoint number @var{number}. - -@findex watchpoint -@item ^Z^Zwatchpoint @var{number} -The program hit watchpoint number @var{number}. -@end table - -@node Source Annotations -@section Displaying Source -@cindex annotations for source display - -@findex source -The following annotation is used instead of displaying source code: - -@smallexample -^Z^Zsource @var{filename}:@var{line}:@var{character}:@var{middle}:@var{addr} -@end smallexample - -where @var{filename} is an absolute file name indicating which source -file, @var{line} is the line number within that file (where 1 is the -first line in the file), @var{character} is the character position -within the file (where 0 is the first character in the file) (for most -debug formats this will necessarily point to the beginning of a line), -@var{middle} is @samp{middle} if @var{addr} is in the middle of the -line, or @samp{beg} if @var{addr} is at the beginning of the line, and -@var{addr} is the address in the target program associated with the -source which is being displayed. @var{addr} is in the form @samp{0x} -followed by one or more lowercase hex digits (note that this does not -depend on the language). - -@node TODO -@section Annotations We Might Want in the Future - -@format - - target-invalid - the target might have changed (registers, heap contents, or - execution status). For performance, we might eventually want - to hit `registers-invalid' and `all-registers-invalid' with - greater precision - - - systematic annotation for set/show parameters (including - invalidation notices). - - - similarly, `info' returns a list of candidates for invalidation - notices. -@end format - -@ignore -@node Index -@unnumbered Index - -@printindex fn -@end ignore - -@c @bye -- cgit v1.1
