How to script gdb? Example add breakpoints, run, what breakpoint did we hit?

Programmer Question

Hi

How can I script gdb to do some basic stuff for me?

I would like to write some kind of script for gdb that more or less does this:

1. Add a couple of breakpoints


2. Start the program


3. When we stop, where did it stop (get the frame info)


4. Quit.

Today I'm trying to do this with

gdb --batch --command=commands.gdb

But it is not working...

Any ideas?

Thanks
Johan
