+# loader for .gdbinit file
+
+# This file provides a guard against multiple inclusion. GDB command syntax is
+# rather limited in that you cannot have a `documentation` command inside of an
+# `if`. So we use a separate loader file that sources `.gdbinit` within the
+# `if`.
+
+# You may need to put an 'add-auto-load-safe-path' command in your
+# $HOME/.gdbinit file to get GDB to trust this file. If your builds are
+# generally in $HOME/moz, then you can say:
+#
+# add-auto-load-safe-path ~/moz
+
+# Multiple include guard
+if $_moz_gdbinit_loaded
+ # already loaded
+else
+ set $_moz_gdbinit_loaded=1
+
+ source -s build/.gdbinit
+
+ # This requires $objdir to have been added to gdb's source directory search
+ # path. Normally this will be done by libxul.so-gdb.py or js-gdb.py.
