Switching to assembly in gdb

Question

Is there is any way to switch to assembly when debugging a C or C++ program in gdb ? (Given that all source files and their corresponding assembly files are available)

Answer 1

Using the disas command will probably do what you want.

According to the internal help, the disas command does the following:

Disassemble a specified section of memory.
Default is the function surrounding the pc of the selected frame.
With a single argument, the function surrounding that address is dumped.
Two arguments are taken as a range of memory to dump.
