[LUGSB] Next LUGSB Meeting: gdb

[Matthew Gruen]

Hello,

Next meeting, December 6th in CS 2120 from 7-9PM, is the last of the
semester. The topic will be gdb[1], the command-line debugger for
C/C++/anything compiled with gcc. I'll talk about typing magical
incantations in order to stop your program conditionally, inspect the
stack, wait for a variable to change, diagnose segfaults, and even
travel back in time. It's a different experience than using GUI
debuggers, though which is better is another question entirely. You
don't need to know C in-depth to follow along.

See you,
Matt
