When @value{GDBN} prints a symbolic address, it normally prints the
closest earlier symbol plus an offset. If that symbol does not uniquely
identify the address (for example, it is a name whose scope is a single
source file), you may need to disambiguate. One way to do this is with
@code{info line}, for example @code{info line *0x4537}. Alternately,
you can set @value{GDBN} to print the source file and line number when
it prints a symbolic address:
@table @code
@item set print symbol-filename on
@kindex set print symbol-filename
Tell @value{GDBN} to print the source file name and line number of a
symbol in the symbolic form of an address.
@item set print symbol-filename off
Do not print source file name and line number of a symbol. This is the
default.
@item show print symbol-filename
@kindex show print symbol-filename
Show whether or not @value{GDBN} will print the source file name and
line number of a symbol in the symbolic form of an address.
@end table
Also, you may wish to see the symbolic form only if the address being
printed is reasonably close to the closest earlier symbol:
@table @code
@item set print max-symbolic-offset @var{max-offset}
@kindex set print max-symbolic-offset
Tell @value{GDBN} to only display the symbolic form of an address if the
offset between the closest earlier symbol and the address is less than
@var{max-offset}. The default is 0, which means to always print the
symbolic form of an address, if any symbol precedes it.
@item show print max-symbolic-offset
@kindex show print max-symbolic-offset
Ask how large the maximum offset is that @value{GDBN} will print in a
symbolic address.
