<dl><dt><code>info pretty-printer [</code><var>object-regexp</var><code> [</code><var>name-regexp</var><code>]]</code><dd>Print the list of installed pretty-printers.
This includes disabled pretty-printers, which are marked as such.
<p><var>object-regexp</var> is a regular expression matching the objects
whose pretty-printers to list.
Objects can be <code>global</code>, the program space's file
(see <a href="Progspaces-In-Python.html#Progspaces-In-Python">Progspaces In Python</a>),
and the object files within that program space (see <a href="Objfiles-In-Python.html#Objfiles-In-Python">Objfiles In Python</a>).
See <a href="Selecting-Pretty_002dPrinters.html#Selecting-Pretty_002dPrinters">Selecting Pretty-Printers</a>, for details on how <span class="sc">gdb</span>
looks up a printer from these three objects.
<p><var>name-regexp</var> is a regular expression matching the name of the printers
to list.
<p><a name="index-disable-pretty_002dprinter-715"></a><br><dt><code>disable pretty-printer [</code><var>object-regexp</var><code> [</code><var>name-regexp</var><code>]]</code><dd>Disable pretty-printers matching <var>object-regexp</var> and <var>name-regexp</var>.
A disabled pretty-printer is not forgotten, it may be enabled again later.
<p><a name="index-enable-pretty_002dprinter-716"></a><br><dt><code>enable pretty-printer [</code><var>object-regexp</var><code> [</code><var>name-regexp</var><code>]]</code><dd>Enable pretty-printers matching <var>object-regexp</var> and <var>name-regexp</var>.
</dl>
<p>Example:
<p>Suppose we have three pretty-printers installed: one from library1.so
named <code>foo</code> that prints objects of type <code>foo</code>, and
another from library2.so named <code>bar</code> that prints two types of objects,
<code>bar1</code> and <code>bar2</code>.
<pre class="smallexample"> (gdb) info pretty-printer
library1.so:
foo
library2.so:
bar
bar1
bar2
(gdb) info pretty-printer library2
library2.so:

(gdb) disable pretty-printer library1

</pre>
<p>Note that for <code>bar</code> the entire printer can be disabled,
as can each individual subprinter.
