I don't mind changing the patch to using %p at all. The reason I avoided %p is because I was still in this frame of mind that %p depends on the implementation - to have consistent output, we have to be careful to not use %p in the core code. However, I just realized that it's not necessarily a problem to do so in nat files. I did double-check what %p does on Windows, though, and apparently it does not output the leading 0x (but that's only a detail), but also it prints the hexa digits in capital letters. This may be from not being used to seeing addresses printed with capital letters, but I find it harder to read. On the other hand, I have seen this style being used in stack dumps printed by Windows, so this may be the usual style on this OS. For now, I think it's important to be consistent, so here is a new patch that uses %p (no leading 0x). 2009-01-14 Joel Brobecker * windows-nat.c (handle_unload_dll): Use %p to print the DLL base address instead of casting it to DWORD. -- Joel
