For that matter, I would probably also replace "/home/jzhang" with "~" to be more user-agnostic and more generic. 45044 1 srifenbark 2014-08-08 12:39:18 +0000 Hi, I have specified the .gdbinit file in the preceding text as "~/.gdbinit" to reinforce the location of the file. The text prior to the example did specify that the following example statement did need to be added to .gbdinit. Adding "~/" to the filename will leave leave no questions about what the user needs to modify. I have also replaced /home/jzhang with ~ as suggested. You can see the changes at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.7/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#create-the-gdb-initialization-file. Marking status as IN PROGRESS REVIEW.
