I set lot of breakpoint in the program, using gdb to debug program is very powerful:) But I do not no how to save breakpoint, so the next time when "gdb ./MyProg" the breakpoint information is lost，“info breakpoint” show no breakpoint, It puzzled me lot of day. Can anybody give some advice? Thanks first.

According to the GDB Manual, you can use the command:
save breakpoints <file>
To save them to , and then:
source <file>
To load them.
If the break points are not yet loaded, you may want to tell gdb to allow loading those breakpoints later.
set breakpoint pending on

but when I set the breakpoints and save breakpoints, system echoed with " warning: save-tracepoints: no tracepoints to save" why even I have set and hit the breakpoints? and what is the tracepoint means? thans for your help first! – parsifal Oct 25 '10 at 06:16

sounds like first entering "set logging on" then can use " source
" to load the breakpoints – parsifal Oct 28 '10 at 07:00

On similar lines,
you can log all gdb inputs into a file and can see.
You can enable log using 'set logging on [filename]'. If file name is not mentioned, then default filename - gdb.txt is taken.
Debug Log might be useful when you want to share gdb trace details
If you do not want to log, disable log using 'set logging off'
