Change command
The change command allows you to alter an event definition
without deleting the event and creating a new one.
The only aspect of an event definition you can't change is the type of event.
You can't change a stop event into a system call event,
but you can change the stop-expression in a stop event.
The first argument to
change is the number of the event
you are altering.
The rest of the syntax depends on the type of each event:
(stop events) change event-number [options] [stop-expression] [{commands}]
(system call events) change event-number [options] [system call...] [{commands}]
(signal events) change event-number [options] [signal...] [{commands}]
(onstop events) change event-number [options] [{commands}]
(exception events) change event-number [options] [throw|catch] [exception-type][{commands}]
For example,
if you had already defined a stop event with a complex command list,
you could add another breakpoint without having to re-enter the command list.
Here are some examples of using change:
debug> change 1 -q # make the event quiet
debug> change 1 -v # make it verbose again
debug> change 1 {} # remove the command list
debug> change 1 -p all -c 2 # change the process list and count
