Hi all,
I am seeing a problem/feature? of gdb (June top of trunk) where if you issue
a command to set a breakpoint on a non-executable line it will return the
line specified, regardless of where it actually set.
For example:
(gdb) b /ubicom/toolchain/src/ld/ldmain.c:1
Breakpoint 2 at 0x41b800: file /ubicom/toolchain/src/ld/ldmain.c, line 1.
(It actually put the breakpoint on line 167).
Is this the desired behavior? I would have expected it to return success -
line 167.
