Printing Expressions

the dbx variable $hexints to a nonzero value. If you set both $octints and

$hexints to nonzero values, $hexints takes precedence.

String Constants

Most dbx expressions cannot include string constants. The print and printf

commands are two of the dbx commands that accept string constants as

arguments. You can also use the set command to assign a string value to a

dbx variable.

Otherwise, string constants are useful only as arguments to functions that

you call interactively. See “Using Interactive Function Calls” on page 53 for

information on interactive function calls.

You can use either the double-quote character (") or the single-quote

character (’) to quote strings in dbx.

In general, dbx recognizes the following escape sequences in quoted strings

(following the standard C language usage):

\\ \n \r \f \b \t \’ \" \a

Printing Expressions

dbx provides the following commands for printing values of expressions:

print [exp1 [, exp2, ...] ]

Prints the value(s) of the speciﬁed expression(s).

printd [exp1 [, exp2, ... ] ]

Prints the value(s) of the speciﬁed expression(s) in decimal.

(pd is an alias for printd. See “Creating and Removing dbx

Variables” on page 19 for more information about dbx

aliases.)

printo [exp1 [, exp2, ... ] ]

Prints the value(s) of the speciﬁed expression(s) in octal. (po

is an alias for printo.)

printx [exp1 [, exp2, ... ] ]

Prints the value(s) of the speciﬁed expression(s) in

hexadecimal. (px is an alias for printx.)

1 2 ... 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 ... 157 158
