The argument must be a PyGC_Head* define pyg print _PyGC_Dump($arg0) end # If you are in an eval_frame() function, calling pyframe with no # arguments will print the filename, function name, and line number. # It assumes that f is the name of the current frame. define pyframe x/s ((PyStringObject*)f->f_code->co_filename)->ob_sval x/s ((PyStringObject*)f->f_code->co_name)->ob_sval p f->f_lineno end
