Rather than deleting a breakpoint, watchpoint, or catchpoint, you might prefer to disable it. This makes the breakpoint inoperative as if it had been deleted, but remembers the information on the breakpoint so that you can enable it again later.
You disable and enable breakpoints, watchpoints, and catchpoints with
the enable
and disable
commands, optionally specifying one
or more breakpoint numbers as arguments. Use info break
or
info watch
to print a list of breakpoints, watchpoints, and
catchpoints if you do not know which numbers to use.
A breakpoint, watchpoint, or catchpoint can have any of four different states of enablement:
break
command starts out in this state.
tbreak
command starts out in this state.
You can use the following commands to enable or disable breakpoints, watchpoints, and catchpoints:
disable [breakpoints] [range…]
Disable the specified breakpoints--or all breakpoints, if none are
listed. A disabled breakpoint has no effect but is not forgotten. All
options such as ignore-counts, conditions and commands are remembered in
case the breakpoint is enabled again later. You may abbreviate
disable
as dis
.
enable [breakpoints] [range…]
Enable the specified breakpoints (or all defined breakpoints). They become effective once again in stopping your program.
enable [breakpoints] once range…
Enable the specified breakpoints temporarily. GDB disables any of these breakpoints immediately after stopping your program.
enable [breakpoints] delete range…
Enable the specified breakpoints to work once, then die. GDB deletes any of these breakpoints as soon as your program stops there.
Except for a breakpoint set with tbreak
(see section Setting breakpoints), breakpoints that you set are initially enabled;
subsequently, they become disabled or enabled only when you use one of
the commands above. (The command until
can set and delete a
breakpoint of its own, but it does not change the state of your other
breakpoints; see Continuing and stepping.)
