There is gdb.lookup_type("SomeType") in GDB python API as listed blow, but I cannot find a way to get the source file and line number where the type is defined, much like what the GDB command info types ^SomeType$ does. Is it possible via GDB python API without invoking into the info types command?

    Try gdb.lookup_static_symbol("SomeType"), you should get a gdb.Symbol of the type, with symtab and line fields. Commented Dec 17, 2022 at 13:31
  • @ssbssa gdb.lookup_static_symbol("SomeType") seems working, thanks. Commented Dec 17, 2022 at 19:11
