This project aims to provide pretty printer for xtensor containers in gdb. For now it only supports evaluated xtensor containers, xexpressions aren't handled by this script. In gdb you can use print command to print xtensor container. It will print shape of container and values of each element with subscripts.

Vscode also supports this pretty printer. Values will be printed in watch window.

In testing_prg directory is simple program that can be used to test this pretty printer. It can be compiled with build_script.sh. \

Setup system-wide gdbinit. Init file should be located at '/etc/gdb/gdbinit'. Append folowing lines:

add-auto-load-safe-path ~/.config/gdb/.gdbinit # enables to use file from other location
source ~/.config/gdb/.gdbinit # will use file specified at each startup

Then create .gdbinit file in home directory.

mkdir ~/.config/gdb
touch ~/.config/gdb/.gdbinit

Append to .gdbinit in home directory.

source <path to printer script>

Pretty printer should now be loaded each time gdb is launched.
