Give input to gdb debugger script

Question

I want to pass some inputs to my gdb debugger to automate it.

Something like this:

Enter number of inputs:
5
Enter 5 inputs:
2 4 3 2 5

I have an expect script for that to automate my binary file.

Can I combine my expect script and gdb script?

@sexpect-ExpectforShells . I don't know. Is there a way to do this? — Milad

Create a file testinput.txt containing:

5
2 4 3 5 2

Then in gdb:

(gdb) run < testinput.txt

Thanks @Clifford. How a bout expect? Can I do something like this with that?

@MiladS Your question has no details about that, and is probably a separate question in any case.
