- Reply-to: gdb at sources dot redhat dot com
On Redhat Linux 7.1 with GDB 5.2.1:
$ mkdir /tmp/a /tmp/b
$ cd /tmp/a
$ ln -s ../b/sample.c link.c
$ ls -ld link.c
... link.c -> ../b/sample.c
$ gcc -g link.c
$ gdb a.out
(gdb) list
(gdb) info source
Current source file is link.c
Compilation directory is /tmp/a/
Located in /tmp/b/sample.c
Contains 6 lines.
Source language is c.
Compiled with stabs debugging format.
Why isn't the source file '/tmp/a/link.c'?
