I am trying to use the –command flag to automate a gdb session. I am trying to set a breakpoint on a function in a shared library (Unix equivalent DLL). My cmds.gdb looks like This way:
set args /home/shlomi/conf/bugs/kde/font-break.txt b IA__FcFontMatch r pre>
However, I get the following:

So it does not set breakpoints after all. How to make it answer "y" by default "To set a breakpoint on pending future shared library loading?
I remember what I can do, but I don’t remember what it is.
To answer myself, I want to give the answer someone gave me on IRC:
(gdb) apropos pending actions - Specify the actions to be taken at a tracepoint set breakpoint - Breakpoint specific settings set breakpoint pending - Set debugger's behavior regarding pending breakpoints show breakpoint - Breakpoint specific settings show breakpoint pending - Show debugger's behavior regarding pending breakpoints
So set a breakpoint to wait for the trick; it is used in cmds.gdb, for example
set breakpoint pending on break :
