Run gdb command from shell script

Question

I was just wondering if it is possible to pass command to GDB from shell script. I will just demonstrate it in code, so it is easier to understand.

#!/bin/sh
gdb --silent Application.app
b -[Class method]

This causes the execution of the script to stop at line 2, and continue only when I quit GDB.
How would I pass the command, if it is even possible? :)

gdb has an option to run the commands from a file with option --command=FILE. You can write all the gdb commands inside that FILE.
