This patch address PR 11381. Briefly there are cases when only
children should be printed in a pretty-printer.  This patch allows the
printer's 'to_string' method to return the Python "None".  If this is
the case, the GDB pretty-printers will print nothing in place of
to_string and also alter the preceding text slightly, stripping off
leading spaces and the '=" text.

For some reason this patch really looks messy in print_string_repr.
The impact to this function is not great, but because of juggling some
else clauses/re-indenting it generates an ugly and hard to read patch.
Apologies for this, I tried to persuade git to produce something nicer
to no avail!


Test on x86_64 with no regressions.  OK?

Cheers,

Phil

ChangeLog

2010-04-08  Phil Muldoon  <pmuldoon@redhat.com>

	PR python/11381

	* python/py-prettyprint.c (pretty_print_one_value): Test for
	Py_None.
	(print_string_repr): Test for Py_None.  Set flags accordingly.
	Return value depending on return type.
	(print_children): Take a value indicating whether data was printed
	before this function was called.  Alter output accordingly.
	(apply_val_pretty_printer): Capture return value from
	print_string_repr and pass to print_children.

Doc ChangeLog

2010-04-08  Phil Muldoon  <pmuldoon@redhat.com>

	* gdb.texinfo (Pretty Printing): Document behaviour when to_string
	returns None.

2010-04-08  Phil Muldoon  <pmuldoon@redhat.com>

	* gdb.python/py-prettyprint.py (NoStringContainerPrinter): New printer.
	* gdb.python/py-prettyprint.c: Add justchildren struct, typedefs.
	* gdb.python/py-prettyprint.exp: New test fro to_string returning None.
