<p>It is often necessary to eliminate a breakpoint, watchpoint, or
catchpoint once it has done its job and you no longer want your program
to stop there.  This is called <em>deleting</em> the breakpoint.  A
breakpoint that has been deleted no longer exists; it is forgotten.
</p>
<p>With the <code>clear</code> command you can delete breakpoints according to
where they are in your program.  With the <code>delete</code> command you can
delete individual breakpoints, watchpoints, or catchpoints by specifying
their breakpoint numbers.
</p>
<p>It is not necessary to delete a breakpoint to proceed past it.  <small>GDB</small>
automatically ignores breakpoints on the first instruction to be executed
when you continue execution without changing the execution address.
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dd><a name="index-clear"></a>
</dd>
<dt><code>clear</code></dt>
<dd><p>Delete any breakpoints at the next instruction to be executed in the
selected stack frame (see <a href="Selection.html#Selection">Selecting a Frame</a>).  When
the innermost frame is selected, this is a good way to delete a
breakpoint where your program just stopped.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>clear <var>location</var></code></dt>
<dd><p>Delete any breakpoints set at the specified <var>location</var>.
See <a href="Specify-Location.html#Specify-Location">Specify Location</a>, for the various forms of <var>location</var>; the
most useful ones are listed below:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>clear <var>function</var></code></dt>
<dt><code>clear <var>filename</var>:<var>function</var></code></dt>
<dd><p>Delete any breakpoints set at entry to the named <var>function</var>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>clear <var>linenum</var></code></dt>
<dt><code>clear <var>filename</var>:<var>linenum</var></code></dt>
<dd><p>Delete any breakpoints set at or within the code of the specified
<var>linenum</var> of the specified <var>filename</var>.
</p></dd>
</dl>

<a name="index-delete-breakpoints"></a>

</dd>
<dt><code>delete <span class="roman">[</span>breakpoints<span class="roman">]</span> <span class="roman">[</span><var>list</var>&hellip;<span class="roman">]</span></code></dt>
<dd><p>Delete the breakpoints, watchpoints, or catchpoints of the breakpoint
list specified as argument.  If no argument is specified, delete all
breakpoints (<small>GDB</small> asks confirmation, unless you have <code>set
confirm off</code>).  You can abbreviate this command as <code>d</code>.
</p></dd>
