@code{symbol-file} with no argument clears out @value{GDBN} information on your
program's symbol table.
-The @code{symbol-file} command causes @value{GDBN} to forget the contents
-of its convenience variables, the value history, and all breakpoints and
-auto-display expressions. This is because they may contain pointers to
-the internal data recording symbols and data types, which are part of
-the old symbol table data being discarded inside @value{GDBN}.
