Hello,I have collection in C++ that stores pointers to functions and methods. Iwant to pretty-print pointed method and functions names. It is possible using GDB shell, for example: (gdb) info symbol 0x405ece top::test_thread() in section .text of test_procs However I found no way to do the same using Python API. Why such limitation? P/S Same question on stackoverflow : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47916564/gdb-python-api-getting-symbol-name-from-address Thanks, Roman
Hi Roman,As most things in the Python API (and GDB in general), it's likely because no one took the time to do it. I don't see any technical reason not to have it. If you take a shot at writing a patch for this, feel free to ask if you are blocked.
Thanks, Simon
