Function: gdb-many-windows

gdb-many-windows is an interactive and byte-compiled function defined in gdb-mi.el.gz.

Signature

(gdb-many-windows &optional ARG)

Documentation

If nil just pop up the GUD buffer unless gdb-show-main is t.

In this case it starts with two windows: one displaying the GUD buffer and the other with the source file with the main routine of the debugged program. Non-nil means display the layout shown for gdb.

This is a global minor mode. If called interactively, toggle the Gdb-Many-Windows mode mode. If the prefix argument is positive, enable the mode, and if it is zero or negative, disable the mode.

If called from Lisp, toggle the mode if ARG is toggle. Enable the mode if ARG is nil, omitted, or is a positive number. Disable the mode if ARG is a negative number.

To check whether the minor mode is enabled in the current buffer, evaluate (default-value \=gdb-many-windows)'.

The mode's hook is called both when the mode is enabled and when it is disabled.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 30.1.
