From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Andrew Cagney To: gdb-patches@sources.redhat.com Subject: [patch/mi/doc] Make tuple/list official in documentation. Date: Sat, 16 Jun 2001 10:36:00 -0000 Message-id: <3B2B9934.8050005@cygnus.com> X-SW-Source: 2001-06/msg00322.html Hello, The attatched patch merges the section ``GDB/MI Draft Changes to Output Syntax'' into the section ``Output Syntax'' making the tuple/list output official. Follow on patches will update the relevant commands but only as I also fix each bit of the corresponding code. One technical note on the syntax. It still allows output of the form: foo=[a="val",a="val"] even though it is argueable as wrong. This is a pragmatic decision. People parsing a list should expect but ignore ``a=''. I'll see about eliminating it in a later round of updates. I'll also document this as a querk where it occures in the MI output. Hmm, perhaps I should just document this in the output syntax section.
