Section "Invoking GDB" of the manual states that if you try to launch gdb with: gdb program 1234 it will try to attach to the process with id 1234, unless there is a file named 1234 in the current working directory, in which case it will try to open that file as a core. In fact, when the second argument starts with a digit, GDB tries to attach to process 1234 first, before trying to open file 1234 as a core. So that last remark is not true and therefore this patch removes it. The same remark is present in the man page, so it is removed there too. Section "Choosing Files" correctly states: If the second argument begins with a decimal digit, GDB will first attempt to attach to it as a process, and if that fails, attempt to open it as a corefile. so it is unchanged. Finally, the man page has an additional detail compared to section "Invoking GDB", regarding the use of the -p switch, so I added the same detail to the "Invoking GDB" section. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (Invoking GDB): Remove sentence about how GDB deals with a file that has the same name as the specified pid to attach to. Add example using -p option. (gdb man): Remove same sentence as in previous item. |
