tbreak

Set a temporary breakpoint.

tbreak [LOCATION] [thread THREADNUM] [if CONDITION]

Like “break” except the breakpoint is only temporary, so it will be deleted when hit.

Equivalent to “break” followed by using “enable delete” on the breakpoint number.

• LOCATION – may be a line number, function name, or “*” and an address.

  • If a line number is specified, break at start of code for that line.
  • If a function is specified, break at start of code for that function.
  • If an address is specified, break at that exact address.

  See “help break” for a full description of what “LOCATION” stands for.

• THREADNUM is the number from “info threads”.

• CONDITION is a boolean expression.

Multiple breakpoints at one place are permitted, and useful if their conditions are different.

Do “help breakpoints” for info on other commands dealing with breakpoints.
