info functions command

Dislays the list of functions in the debugged program

Syntax

info functions
info functions [Regex]

Parameters

Regex
If specified, the info functions command will list the functions matching the regex. If omitted, the command wil list all functions in all loaded modules (main program and shared libraries).

Remarks

Note that running the info functions command without arguments can produce a lot of output as the list of all functions in all loaded shared libraries is typically very long.

Examples

Below is a sample use of the info functions for a very basic program containing only the main() function:

(gdb) help info functions
All function names, or those matching REGEXP.
(gdb) info functions
All defined functions:

File test.cpp:
int main(int, char**);
static void _GLOBAL__sub_I_main();
static void __static_initialization_and_destruction_0(int, int);
