pthreads

Hi Wish to know that I have a program which uses two threads I have put the break point in both the threads. While running the program under gdb I want to switch between the threads and make them run. (thread t1 is active and running and thread t2 hold on the breakpoint I want to stop T1 running and run the T2)

Is there any way that I can schedule the threads in gdb.

Thanks Arpit
