I am trying to debug a program compiled from multiple source files. However, I
can't seem to make gdb trace any source file except the outermost. This can
be illustrated by the following example. Consider the following to source
files:
=== test5a.c ==================================================================
#line 1 "test5a.c"
main() {
int a;
int b;
b=1;
#include "test5b.c"
b=0;
exit(0);
}
===============================================================================
=== test5b.c ==================================================================
#line 1 "test5b.c"
a=999;
b=999;
a=998;
b=998;
===============================================================================
I compiled the test5a with gcc 1.37 as "gcc test5a.c -g -o test5a". I then ran
gdb 3.5 as "gdb test5a". I get the following results:
=== test5a.gcc.out ============================================================

5 b=1;
6 #include "test5b.c"
7 b=0;
8 exit(0);
9 }
(gdb) break main

(gdb) step
6 #include "test5b.c"
(gdb) step
7 b=0;
(gdb) step
Program exited normally.
(gdb) quit
===============================================================================
My question is how do I trace the execution of test5b.c.
Thanks,
