<h4 class="subsubsection">15.4.9.9 <small>GDB</small> and Modula-2</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>Some <small>GDB</small> commands have little use when debugging Modula-2 programs.
|
|
Five subcommands of <code>set print</code> and <code>show print</code> apply
|
|
specifically to C and C<tt>++</tt>: ‘<samp>vtbl</samp>’, ‘<samp>demangle</samp>’,
|
|
‘<samp>asm-demangle</samp>’, ‘<samp>object</samp>’, and ‘<samp>union</samp>’. The first four
|
|
apply to C<tt>++</tt>, and the last to the C <code>union</code> type, which has no direct
|
|
analogue in Modula-2.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The <code>@</code> operator (see <a href="Expressions.html#Expressions">Expressions</a>), while available
|
|
with any language, is not useful with Modula-2. Its
|
|
intent is to aid the debugging of <em>dynamic arrays</em>, which cannot be
|
|
created in Modula-2 as they can in C or C<tt>++</tt>. However, because an
|
|
address can be specified by an integral constant, the construct
|
|
‘<samp>{<var>type</var>}<var>adrexp</var></samp>’ is still useful.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a name="index-_0023-in-Modula_002d2"></a>
|
|
<p>In <small>GDB</small> scripts, the Modula-2 inequality operator <code>#</code> is
|
|
interpreted as the beginning of a comment. Use <code><></code> instead.
