RE: [RFC] adding gdb.pascal subdir

Pierre Muller

Hi Daniel,

sorry to have let you wait so long,
but I completely missed your email
(I have a mailbox rule that puts everything that
contains gpc emails into a special folder
and, despite looking regularly on my gdb
folder, I missed your email for two weeks as
I did not check the gpc mailbox).

I just added some comment in pascal.exp
and modified hello.exp so that
gpc and fpc only fail once. It is difficult
to completely remove the failures present
in the tests, as they are due to two different problems
1) the gpc failure comes from the fact that
'start' command ends up in some implicit code
which does not contain the main source file name.

A possible work-around would be to fix breakpoints at specific
positions in the file, but this would require to re-edit hello.exp
each time someone changes hello.pas source.
I have no idea if this is acceptable.

2) the fpc failure comes from the implicit "up-casing" made inside
Free Pascal for all procedure/function names.
I had a specific patch, that I used in the libgdb generation for
our IDE that tried also a up-cased version if the as given
pattern did not match any function, but it seems very Free Pascal specific.

The other failure is common to gpc and fpc:
(gdb) ptyp 'a simple string' ^M
gives a strange error:
No symbol table is loaded: use "file" command.
I have no idea why this happens.

Otherwise all your modifications seem very fine to me,

Pierre Muller
