Question

I am using gdb to debug a fortran90 program, myprog.f90, that uses some modules, say mod1 and mod2.

I launch gdb…
$ gdb ./program

and try to set a line break…
(gdb) break 80

but I receive the error “No line 80 in file ‘mod1.f90′”.
So although I am trying to set a line break in myprog.f90, it’s trying to set the line break in the first module of the program mod1.

How do I break a line in and step through myprog.f90?

Thank you.

Answer 1

Do this:

(gdb) break myprog.f90:80

See also documentation on setting breakpoints, and on location specification.
