Is there a way to reload .gdbinit file.
Assume that you are already working in gdb, and you have made changes to .gdbinit, and want to reload the new .gdbinit without disturbing the present gdb environment.
Is this possible?
You can execute the commands in .gdbinit (or any other file) with the source command. E.g., "source .gdbinit" will execute the commands in the .gdbinit in your current directory. You will need to specify the path if you want to use another .gdbinit, such as "source ~/.gdbinit" for the one in your home directory.
This will only execute the commands currently in the file; it will not reset or undo the commands that were previously in the file. So it will update any definitions or settings the current commands make, but it will not erase or undo any old definitions or settings.
source ~/.gdbinit

I have created a windows batch file to run a code which is located in a particular folder. However, I am running the batch file but it does not work. What I want it to do is:
Change working directory in Spyder (Spyder is already openned so I don't want it to open it first)
Run the script I want to execute
Basically, the script I am running is plotting a bunch of graphs and all the files needed to create this are located in the working directory.
#echo off
"C:\Users\Mason\Desktop\WinPython-64bit-2.7.6.4\spyder.exe"
chdir /D "F:\optimisation"
"F:\optimisation\plot.py"
pause
The batch file runs fine without any errors, but nothing happens in Spyder e.g. it doesn't change the working directory and neither executes the code.
I'd suggest
#echo off
setlocal
chdir /D "F:\optimisation"
"C:\Users\Mason\Desktop\WinPython-64bit-2.7.6.4\spyder.exe" "F:\optimisation\plot.py"
pause
That is, switch to the required directory, having set a local environment (this restores the original environment when the batch terminates).
Then run the spyder executable, providing it with the name of the file. It would be normal practice to use this structure to provide a significant filename to an executable (eg notepad fred,txt)
Since the current directory when spyder runs is f:\optimisation, it is probably not necessary to specify the entire path in spyder's argument.
Note this is all just speculation using normal practice. I have no experience of spyder- in fact, this is the first I've heard of it.
I'm attempting to write a batch file that will move to the specified directory and then run the command to open my desired program. Specifically I want it to run the command HardwareSimulator so it will open the software nand2tetris provides.
I've gotten it to move to the directory I want, but the opening is my issue. Code is displayed below. I'm guessing start isn't the correct command since when I run, it just runs an infinite loop of opening cmd prompts.
My second question would be: can I only go into sub-directories of where my batch file is already stored? It would be easier to store it in my desktop, so I can just click it whenever, but I can't seem to make it back out of a directory and then go down into another.
start cmd
pushd \nand2tetris\projects\P1Codes
start HardwareSimulator
pause
You can use ..\ to go back a directory.
For instance, if you had nand2tetris in your downloads folder you could get to it from the desktop with this script. Also make sure to to include the file extension.
pushd ..\Downloads\nand2tetris\projects\P1Codes
start HardwareSimulator.exe
pause
I have set a new environment variable pointing to msbuild.exe folder.
C:\temp\Test>echo %DOT_NET4%
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319
Now, if I start a new cmd and run "msbuild.exe", the programs runs ok, but after running this simple bat, the program is not found anymore:
"C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\svn.exe" checkout %CHECKOUT% %PATH%
cd %PATH%
nuget restore OpenText.sln
msbuild.exe OpenText.sln
msbuild not recognized as an internal or external command.
Thanks in advance
I am seeing the same thing as Joey in his comment. Your use of CD %PATH% is a red flag that indicates a problem.
PATH is a critical environment variable that contains a delimited list of folder paths where important executables are located. The command processor uses that list to locate programs when an external command is issued without the full path to the command.
If PATH is set correctly, then your command CD %PATH% cannot work. But I suspect you have some script that defines PATH to a specific folder, perhaps where nuget is located. In this case, your CD %PATH% command works, but now cmd.exe has no idea where msbuild.exe is located.
Moral of the story - don't ever use PATH for your own purposes. Pick some other variable name that is not reserved.
First things first, where are you setting the msbuild path? To resolve your issues, please check if you have followed this process:
Open your system control panel, check for advanced system settings.
Click on Environment variables and edit PATH
Add a semicolon followed by the msbuild path.
Open a new command prompt and check if it is working or not.
Please note if you set msbuild in one command prompt, it will not be available in another command prompt.
Another issue which I see when I look at your logic is, you are trying to cd to %PATH% which should be avoided, you are either resetting the Environment variable path to a new path and trying to cd to it or you will land up file name longer issues, please use another variable instead.
In the bat which you are invoking, add a condition at the root level, such that if msbuild is not found, basing on %ERRORLEVEL%, try adding msbuild to path again at batch level, so that you build will proceed.
I am trying to run a batch file right before the installation begins,
Just after the user chooses the component he wants to install.
fortunately, I don't build it from basic, I have a ready iss file which depending on the component runs a batch file that you have created already.
In the batch file I trying to change the directory of the installer to specific one.
I tried to do so as I set INSTALLBINDIR and appfolder to my directory but it haven't work.
Do you know the variables I need to set so the installer will install where I want?
Edit:
I found out that I don't need to use a batch file.
To fixed a position to file you just need to put your Directory in the DestDir in [files]
You can't change the install directory directly from a sub script/program run from the installer.
You will need to set the WizardForm.DirEdit.Text in [Code] to the new value.
Alternatively, you can use a {code:...} constant for the DefaultDirName directive to get a suitable value to start with.
I am using windows XP operating system and cygwin is installed in my C drive.
I need to login to cygwin directly to my directory path which contains a makefile and also a bash script called build.sh in the same directory. So i modified the original cygwin.bat file and added the line as shown below.
#echo off
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
bash --login "/cygdrive/E/scheme_31july/build/build.sh"
When i double click on this bat file i could see my script executing but not on cygwin shell but on windows cmd shell as a result I get errors for "make" command like "No rule to make target" as make comes bundled with cygwin.
And when I explicitly login to cygwin using default cygwin.bat file and execute my script by giving following commands in cygwin shell the script executes without errors.
Basically I want to write a bat file so that I can keep it anywhere in my PC and instead of manually openeing the cygwin prompt and typing commands like:
$ cd /cygdrive/E/scheme_31july/build/
$ sh build.sh
it should happen automatically. I sit possible to do so.

Harshit
No rule to make target sounds more like make being executed in the wrong directory. make itself seems to be available and running as intended.
Try this:
bash --login -c "cd /cygdrive/E/scheme_31july/build/ && sh build.sh"
This should start a --login session (which should give you access to all the settings and tools you'd expect in a cygwin prompt environment), then execute the given shell command, which is the cd and sh you asked for. You could also write those two lines to a separate script file, and pass the name of that to bash instead of the full path to build.sh.
You could also try to cd into C:\scheme_31july\build in the bat file and then execute bash from there. Not sure whether bash will try to change path upon entering the login session. You can try whether things work without the --login, both for this approach and the one above.
#echo off
C:
cd C:\scheme_31july\build
C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe ./build.sh
I'm not sure whether you want the session to turn interactive after that or not. In the above case, bash will terminate after the script completed, and might even close the window. You might have to add a read into build.sh to avoid that. If you want bash to turn interactive after executing some command, you can try using the --rcfile option of bash to execute some commands and then turn interactive.
