How to go to the previous line in GDB?

Question

Is it possible in gdb to go to a line before the currently executing line. e.g:

void my_fun( somePtrType** arr,int start,int end)
{
 // arr is an array of p         


        

Answer 1

If your program is short, the usual trick is,

1. Place a new breakpoint at the previous line
   • fire r to restart the debug

GDB was made to do that!
