(gdb) Tips on printing variables
- Printing type of variable:
ptype <VARIABLE_SYMBOL>- For class objects, prints the signature of the whole class
-
Printing a vector:
p[rint] <VECTOR> - Printing an element in a vector:
- Often
operator[]orat()method don’t work in gdb - Instead, use
<VECTOR>._M_impl._M_start+<INDEX> - This will return the pointer to the target element in the underlying array, so dereferencing the pointer would give the element
- Often
