### 27.12 GDB/MI Ada Tasking Commands ¶

#### The `-ada-task-info` Command ¶

#### Synopsis ¶

     -ada-task-info [ task-id ]

Reports information about either a specific Ada task, if the task-id parameter is present, or about all Ada tasks.

#### GDB Command ¶

The ‘`info tasks`’ command prints the same information about all Ada tasks (see Extensions for Ada Tasks).

#### Result ¶

The result is a table of Ada tasks. The following columns are defined for each Ada task:

‘`current`’

  This field exists only for the current thread. It has the value ‘`*`’.

‘`id`’

  The identifier that GDB uses to refer to the Ada task.

‘`task-id`’

  The identifier that the target uses to refer to the Ada task.

‘`thread-id`’

  The global thread identifier of the thread corresponding to the Ada task.

  This field should always exist, as Ada tasks are always implemented on top of a thread. But if GDB cannot find this corresponding thread for any reason, the field is omitted.

‘`parent-id`’

  This field exists only when the task was created by another task. In this case, it provides the ID of the parent task.

‘`priority`’

  The base priority of the task.

‘`state`’

  The current state of the task. For a detailed description of the possible states, see Extensions for Ada Tasks.

‘`name`’

  The name of the task.
