GDB support - Python Developers Guide GDB support ¶ Page moved ¶ Information on debugging CPython using GDB is now in the main Python documentation, since it is relevant for C extension modules as well Please read it first: Debugging C API extensions and CPython Internals with GDB CPython tips ¶ This document includes a few additional tips that are useful specifically for debugging CPython internals Breaking at labels ¶ You
Python (Debugging with GDB) - sourceware. org Python scripts used by GDB should be installed in data-directory python, where data-directory is the data directory as determined at GDB startup (see Data Files) This directory, known as the python directory, is automatically added to the Python Search Path in order to allow the Python interpreter to locate all scripts installed at this location
Unable to install GDB with python support - Stack Overflow The thing is, I want to have python support in my GDB installation When I ran configure --with-python with make in the GDB source file directory, however, the "make" exited with the following
how to enable python for gdb · Issue #925 · riscv-collab . . . Gdb will use python automatically if a python binary is available, and the python-dev package is installed Otherwise, you have to edit the Makefile to add a --with-python option to specify the name of the pythonX binary, and make sure that the pythonX-dev package is installed See issue #722 where we have been discussing python issues and possible solutions
Debugging C API extensions and CPython Internals with GDB Setup with Python built from source ¶ When you build CPython from source, debugging information should be available, and the build should add a python-gdb py file to the root directory of your repository To activate support, you must add the directory containing python-gdb py to GDB’s “auto-load-safe-path”
linux - Loading python support in gdb - Stack Overflow One thing to try is to find the file where py-bt is defined, and then make sure the containing directory is in some auto-load or debug-file directory that gdb will search In general, the name of such a file would be python*-gdb py or libpython*-gdb py and would be somewhere in the tree of files under usr lib debug or usr share gdb
