I'm trying to run my program TestApc via gdb and get useful data when my program crash with back trace command ("bt" command).

I wrote a bash script , which look like:

#!/bin/bash
gdb -ex=r --args ./TestApc

When the program crash, I can't type the "bt" command (because I get out from the gdb console) Is there a way to stay on gdb after the crash ?

Is there any specific need of executing gdb through a bash script. From command line it will be much easier. – Rndp13 Jun 08 '15 at 14:32

When the program crashes, you should see a `(gdb)` prompt. Are you seeing something else? – Mark Plotnick Jun 08 '15 at 15:06
After the prograam crash - I can see it was exsits from the gdb console – user3668129 Jun 08 '15 at 15:39
