Displaying struct values in GDB

December 20, 2023 by Tarik

print *variable

If you do that it will display the value of that variable in GDB.
You also have an option to display the struct with indentation and new lines:

$1 = {
  next = 0x0,
  flags = {
    sweet = 1,
    sour = 1
  },
  meat = 0x54 "Pork"
}

For that you need to set the pretty print:

set print pretty on

If you want to print an array of values you do:

print *array@len
