8 {
9 op(int id): m_id(id) {}

11 void operator()()
12 {
13 std::cout << m_id << " begin" << std::endl;
14 std::cout << m_id << " end" << std::endl;

18 };

20 int main(int argc, char ** argv)
21 {
22 boost::thread t1(op(1)), t2(op(2)), t3(op(3));
23 t1.join(); t2.join(); t3.join();
24 return 0;
25 }

2. 把一下3行添加到~/.gdbinit来打开non-stop模式
set target-async 1
set pagination off
set non-stop on
3. 启动gdb,设断点,运行.可以看到主线程1是running,3个子线程都断在断点上,而不是只有一个子线程断在断点上.
~/devroot/nonstop$ gdb ./nonstop

4. 让线程3继续运行,注意我顾意把主线程1也continue,这是我发现的workaround,否则gdb不能切回thread 1.
(gdb) thread apply 3 1 continue
Thread 3 (Thread 0x7ffff6488910 (LWP 2763)):
Continuing.
Thread 1 (Thread 0x7ffff7fe3710 (LWP 2759)):

5. 让另外两个线程继续运行而结束,主线程断在第24行,最后结束.
