RE: Is there an example of how to use the gdb/mi interface ?

["Robert" <robert dot melchers at drives dot eurotherm dot co dot uk>]

nm is fine for getting the base address of a structure, what I am after is finding the address of an
element of a structure. In gdb I would type "print &data.input" and get 0x12341234 in response.

The example I was looking for is a program that attached/launched/loaded gbd and performed some sort
of simple query using the MI interface.

Thanks in advance.
