Ease of Use
Making GDB easier to use.
There are a few commands gdb
uses to make the debugging experience better. These don't provide any extra information, but they make debugging quicker.
aliases
aliases
GEF overrides the typical gdb
aliasing mechanism (which is done via alias
).
Use aliases add <alias> <command>
to add an alias. Use aliases rm <alias>
to remove an alias.
Use aliases ls
to view the current alias list.
Aliases are stored in ~/.gef.rc
. You can edit the aliases directly in this file.
config
config
This command shows the current GEF configuration. It reads from ~/.gef.rc
and the gef
section of ~/.gdbinit
.
You can set a value in this configuration with gef config <key> <value>
. For example, gef config context.enable False
will disable the context.
