I just haven't got around to doing it yet. But I'll do it hopefully sometimes soon. (still traveling for a few more days, which explains my silence). > Seriously, I'd like to see a testcase that FAIL->PASS with this patch. > Can somebody get a C++ testcase, at least? I don't mind at all writing an Ada test for this, but I think it would be more profitable for the GDB community if that test was written using C++. That's because it is more common to have a C++ compiler installed compared to an Ada one. Probably it wouldn't hurt to have both? > the patch looks sensible, but I would like to see the testcase go in > at the same time, or we'll forget. OK, I'll work on the C++ test, shouldn't be too hard to create one. But it'll have to wait for a few days until I get home. > > 2004-02-19 J.
