*** Changes since GDB 5.1:
* New command line option
GDB now accepts --pid or -p followed by a process id.
* Change in command line behavior -- corefiles vs. process ids.
There is a subtle behavior in the way in which GDB handles
command line arguments. The first non-flag argument is always
a program to debug, but the second non-flag argument may either
be a corefile or a process id. Previously, GDB would attempt to
open the second argument as a corefile, and if that failed, would
issue a superfluous error message and then attempt to attach it as
a process. Now, if the second argument begins with a non-digit,
it will be treated as a corefile. If it begins with a digit,
GDB will attempt to attach it as a process, and if no such process
is found, will then attempt to open it as a corefile.
