#include <stdio.h>
static void display(int i, int *ptr);

int main(void) {
   int x = 5;
   int *xptr = &x;
   printf("In main():\n");
   printf("   x is %d and is stored at %p.\n", x, &x);
   printf("   xptr points to %p which holds %d.\n", xptr, *xptr);
   display(x, xptr);
   return 0;
}

void display(int z, int *zptr) {
   printf("In display():\n");
   printf("   z is %d and is stored at %p.\n", z, &z);
   printf("   zptr points to %p which holds %d.\n", zptr, *zptr);
}

使用上面的file， 比如 test.c

1, 编译。 gcc -g -o testx test.c

2, 运行。 gdb testx

3, 设置断点。 gdb> b 8

Breakpoint 1 at 0x8048472: file test.c, line 8.

4, 设置断点2。 gdb> b 10

Breakpoint 2 at 0x80484ac: file test.c, line 10.

5, 执行。 gdb> run

Starting program: /home/wang/mytest/gdbtest/testx 
In main():


Breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:8
8   printf("   x is %d and is stored at %p.\n", x, &x);

6, 继续。 gdb> c

Continuing.
   x is 5 and is stored at 0xbfffeb58.
   xptr points to 0xbfffeb58 which holds 5.


Breakpoint 2, main () at test.c:10
10   display(x, xptr);

7, 继续。 gdb> c

Continuing.
In display():
   z is 5 and is stored at 0xbfffeb40.
   zptr points to 0xbfffeb58 which holds 5.
