GDB new thread silent/quiet

I've a program that generates a lot of threads
that are so ephemeral that debugging the program
with gdb is a headache. Because it outputs :

[New Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7112)]
[Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7112) exited]
[New Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7113)]
[Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7113) exited]
[New Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7114)]
[Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7114) exited]
[New Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7115)]
[Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7115) exited]
[New Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7116)]
[Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7116) exited]
[New Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7117)]
[Thread 1090525504 (LWP 7117) exited]

for each and everythread created. How to disable
printing this output.

I know I can code in alternate way to avoid this
by using thread pools, but I don't want to do it now.
Any quick solution to gdb would be greatly appreciated.

I am unable to find such a request anywhere in GDB
FAQ.

Thank you,
Atul

This might sound off the wall, but how about grabbing the source of gdb and removing the lines that output this stuff? If you anticipate spending a lot of time debugging this application and possibly others like it, this might be the quickest solution in the long run.

Thanks for the reply, I think it is easier for me to
rewrite my own application to avoid creating new threads,
I'll reuse created threads, using some mechanism, will
be more efficient also.

Editing gdb [], I have never done anything like that,
I'll try sometime. A similar technique shall be filtering the
output stream, to get similar effect. I'll that that
version. (thanks for your tip).

I was expecting a direct command.

You can enter this to turn off all the thread messages:

set print thread-events off

Better yet, put it in the .gdbinit file in your home folder.

Turn them back on with:

set print thread-events on
