            Bug ID: 27088
           Summary: Documentation  error in range checking bounds of type
           Product: gdb
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: martin.kielhorn at philips dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

The documentation for range checking the bounds of a type has a mistake:

https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Range-Checking.html#Range=
-Checking


The last paragraph says:

> show range
>         Show the current setting of the range checker, and=20
>         whether or not it is being set automatically by GDB.

Instead it should say:

> show check range
>         Show the current setting of the range checker, and=20
>         whether or not it is being set automatically by GDB.


Example call:

(gdb) show range
Debugger's willingness to use range stepping is on.
(gdb) show check range
Range checking is "auto; currently off".
