如何在没有源代码的情况下检查 GDB 中的 std::string?

I'm trying to debug a program that has no source code available, and I need to look at what it has stored in a std::string. I've been Googling and looking on here, and I've found some information about outputting STL containers, but all of it refers to variables, with no source or debug information all I have is a memory offset of the class data. Is there any way to do this?

Every std::string implementation has a pointer to the raw characters in it somewhere. For g++ 4.x, that pointer is at offset 0 into the string.

If you know that the string resides at e.g. 0x7fffffffda88, then

print *(char**)0x7fffffffda88

is what you need.
