How to disable symbol loading in gdb-7.10?

596 views Asked by At

In the old versions of gdb there was an option, -readnever, which suppressed symbol loading. Can I achieve the same result with gdb-7.10? This is needed to just stack traces, not for debugging.

I took a look through the source for older versions of gdb and could not find this option. After a bit of hunting I believe that this option is a RedHat patch. I guess later versions of gdb released by RedHat will include that patch, alternatively, if you are building gdb yourself you could apply that patch.
