Right now gdb uses a mix of things. In addition to the case you found, if you print a structure, and that struct hold a char*, gdb will read memory to print the string. However, this memory isn't stashed in the value, so later on you can 'print $2' and see a different string. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
