.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
When \s-1GDB\s0 finds a symbol file, it scans the symbols in the
file in order to construct an internal symbol table.  This lets most
\&\s-1GDB\s0 operations work quickly\*(--at the cost of a delay early on.
For large programs, this delay can be quite lengthy, so \s-1GDB\s0
provides a way to build an index, which speeds up startup.
.PP
To determine whether a file contains such an index, use the command
\&\f(CW\*(C`readelf \-S filename\*(C'\fR: the index is stored in a section named
\&\f(CW\*(C`.gdb_index\*(C'\fR.  The index file can only be produced on systems
which use \s-1ELF\s0 binaries and \s-1DWARF\s0 debug information (i.e., sections
named \f(CW\*(C`.debug_*\*(C'\fR).
.PP
\&\fBgdb-add-index\fR uses \s-1GDB\s0 and \fBobjdump\fR found
in the \fB\s-1PATH\s0\fR environment variable.  If you want to use different
versions of these programs, you can specify them through the
\&\fB\s-1GDB\s0\fR and \fB\s-1OBJDUMP\s0\fR environment variables.
.PP
See more in
the \s-1GDB\s0 manual in node \f(CW\*(C`Index Files\*(C'\fR
\&\*(-- shell command \f(CW\*(C`info \-f gdb \-n "Index Files"\*(C'\fR.

The full documentation for \s-1GDB\s0 is maintained as a Texinfo manual.
If the \f(CW\*(C`info\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`gdb\*(C'\fR programs and \s-1GDB\s0's Texinfo
documentation are properly installed at your site, the command
.PP
.Vb 1
\&        info gdb
.Ve
.PP
should give you access to the complete manual.
