<h4 class="subsection">22.8.4 Displaying files tried for auto-load</h4>

<p><a name="index-auto_002dloading-verbose-mode-1727"></a>
For better visibility of all the file locations where you can place scripts to
be auto-loaded with inferior &mdash; or to protect yourself against accidental
execution of untrusted scripts &mdash; <span class="sc">gdb</span> provides a feature for printing
all the files attempted to be loaded.  Both existing and non-existing files may
be printed.

   <p>For example the list of directories from which it is safe to auto-load files
(see <a href="Auto_002dloading-safe-path.html#Auto_002dloading-safe-path">Auto-loading safe path</a>) applies also to canonicalized filenames which
may not be too obvious while setting it up.

<pre class="smallexample">     (gdb) set debug auto-load on
     (gdb) file ~/src/t/true
     auto-load: Loading canned sequences of commands script "/tmp/true-gdb.gdb"

     auto-load: Using directory "/opt".
