<p><a name="index-g_t_0040sc_007bgdb_002fmi_007d_002c-its-purpose-2950"></a><span class="sc">gdb/mi</span> is a line based machine oriented text interface to
|
||
|
|
<span class="sc">gdb</span> and is activated by specifying using the
|
||
|
|
<samp><span class="option">--interpreter</span></samp> command line option (see <a href="Mode-Options.html#Mode-Options">Mode Options</a>). It
|
||
|
|
is specifically intended to support the development of systems which
|
||
|
|
use the debugger as just one small component of a larger system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>This chapter is a specification of the <span class="sc">gdb/mi</span> interface. It is written
|
||
|
|
in the form of a reference manual.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Note that <span class="sc">gdb/mi</span> is still under construction, so some of the
|
||
|
|
features described below are incomplete and subject to change
|
||
|
|
(see <a href="GDB_002fMI-Development-and-Front-Ends.html#GDB_002fMI-Development-and-Front-Ends"><span class="sc">gdb/mi</span> Development and Front Ends</a>).
