Subject: [PATCH] gdb: implement Tcl platform detection and improve private headers scan
Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2026 19:58:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260402175844.74804-1-patrick@monnerat.net> (raw)
This is needed for recent TEA support.
Autoconf macro CY_AC_TCL_PRIVATE_HEADERS checks more file locations and
determines TCL_PLATFORM according to the private header files found.
A C macro TCL_PLATFORM_DEFINE is computed accordingly and defined from
command line.
The same applies to Tk.
As in-tree Tcl/Tk sources have been removed, this case is left out.
This change primarily targets Insight.
