Using the restart Command |
 |
Use the restart
command to restart the target program while preserving breakpoints
and watchpoints.
The restart
command restarts the currently loaded target program. If no target
program is loaded, it restarts the last target program that ran
in the current debugging session.
A program may not restart correctly if its object file was
modified after the original debug
command. Breakpoints, for example, may be reset at inappropriate
locations after restarting.
If you do not want to preserve breakpoints, watchpoints, and
symbol information, kill the target program (or let it finish executing)
and re-enter the debug
command.
Without options, the restart
command restarts the target program using the same arguments specified
in the previous invocation. Use the -args
option if you want to specify different arguments in the target
program invocation.
For example, the following command restarts the currently
running target program, replacing previously specified arguments
with the argument -s:
