Re: Setting Prog pointer back in the prog

Hi,
With MsDev debugger, you can set the program pointer back in the code
(Set Next Statement).
Is it also possible with GDB?
If yes, how? Why doesn't Eclipse/Insight/DDD/... don't provide that?
If no, why? Will it be implemented in a next version? Or is it a MsDev
bug? :-)


Try: "set $pc = <address>".  You have to use PC values, not line
numbers.

FYI,

(gdb) help jump
Continue program being debugged at specified line or address.
Give as argument either LINENUM or *ADDR, where ADDR is an expression
for an address to start at.
