How do I restart naming GDB’s internal variables from $1?
By default, GDB’s internal variables will be $1, $2, $3, …. How do I restart naming from $1?
(gdb) p v1
$1 = 7
(gdb) p v2
$2 = 8
(gdb) p v3
$3 = 9
(gdb) ??? what should be put here?
$1 = 0
Solution
See the documentation, There is no explicit command to clear the value history.
It does mention the file and symbol-file commands, which can alter the symbol table and clear the history.
In addition, you can use output instead of print to avoid putting printed values into the value history.
