Subject: [PATCH] fix assertion when returning from initial frame
Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2007 16:24:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070221162434.GL4200@sparrowhawk.codesourcery.com> (raw)
The following patch fixes an assertion when a user attempts to return
from the initial frame (or a frame for which GDB cannot find the
previous frame due to limited debugging information). frame_pop always
assumed that a previous frame could be found; it now checks that it
actually finds a previous frame before proceeding.
OK? (I do not have gdb commit privileges.)
