gdb: Source

 
 9 Examining Source Files
 ************************
 
 GDB can print parts of your program's source, since the debugging
 information recorded in the program tells GDB what source files were
 used to build it.  When your program stops, GDB spontaneously prints the
 line where it stopped.  Likewise, when you select a stack frame (See
 Selecting a Frame Selection.), GDB prints the line where execution in
 that frame has stopped.  You can print other portions of source files by
 explicit command.
 
    If you use GDB through its GNU Emacs interface, you may prefer to use
 Emacs facilities to view source; see SeeUsing GDB under GNU Emacs
 Emacs.
