<h4 class="subsection">C.6.1 Installed System-wide Configuration Scripts</h4>

<p><a name="index-system_002dwide-configuration-scripts-3304"></a>
The <samp><span class="file">system-gdbinit</span></samp> directory, located inside the data-directory
(as specified by <samp><span class="option">--with-gdb-datadir</span></samp> at configure time) contains
a number of scripts which can be used as system-wide init files.  To
automatically source those scripts at startup, <span class="sc">gdb</span> should be
configured with <samp><span class="option">--with-system-gdbinit</span></samp>.  Otherwise, any user
should be able to source them by hand as needed.

   <p>The following scripts are currently available:
     <ul>
<li><samp><span class="file">elinos.py</span></samp>
<a name="index-elinos_002epy-3305"></a><a name="index-ELinOS-system_002dwide-configuration-script-3306"></a>This script is useful when debugging a program on an ELinOS target. 
It takes advantage of the environment variables defined in a standard
ELinOS environment in order to determine the location of the system
shared libraries, and then sets the &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">solib-absolute-prefix</span></samp>&rsquo;
and &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">solib-search-path</span></samp>&rsquo; variables appropriately.

     <li><samp><span class="file">wrs-linux.py</span></samp>
<a name="index-wrs_002dlinux_002epy-3307"></a><a name="index-Wind-River-Linux-system_002dwide-configuration-script-3308"></a>This script is useful when debugging a program on a target running
Wind River Linux.  It expects the <samp><span class="env">ENV_PREFIX</span></samp> to be set to
the host-side sysroot used by the target system.

   </ul>
