The following changes the mi documentation to clarify the usage of the "--" delimeter. This delimeter is meant to provide a way to separate options from parameters so as to handle cases whereby the parameters may start with "-" and be mistaken for options. The problem reported tries to use it generally before any parameter list. This doesn't work because only the mi_getopt option processor knows to ignore it and commands that don't have options (preceded by dash) don't call mi_getopt. It is then treated as a parameter which is incorrect. I have removed the delimeter from the description of the -data-disassemble command as it is not manditory and the delimeter should be treated as optional to all applicable commands that support both options and parameters. I have removed it from one of the -data-disassemble examples to clarify that it may or may not be specified. Ok to commit? -- Jeff J. gdb/mi/ChangeLog: 2002-11-11 Jeff Johnston * gdbmi.texinfo (GDB/MI Output Syntax): Clarify the usage of the optional "--" delimeter. (-data-disassemble): Remove "--" from command synopsis. Also change one example to not use "--". This is a fix for PR gdb/783.
