Show or change the current thread.
thread [ID]
ID |
The identifier of the thread to which you want to switch. |
This command shows or changes the current thread. If you omit a thread identifier, the debugger shows the current thread. If you specify a thread identifier, the debugger makes that thread the current thread.
The debugger variable $curthread contains the thread identifier of the current thread. The $curthread value is updated when program execution stops or completes.
You can modify the current thread by assigning $curthread a valid thread identifier, which is equivalent to issuing the thread ID command. When there is no process or program, $curthread is set to 0.
