UNRESOLVED: gdb.cp/static-print-quit.exp: print c This is because we expect to read: "...Type to continue, or q to quit---$" However, when using read1(), the "" part matches with this snippet from lib/gdb.exp: "" { send_gdb "\n" perror "Window too small." fail "$message" ... We can prevent this if we, in our gdb_test_multiple, create a "" case with `exp_continue'. Nonetheless, except this, we must also in this case: -re " to quit---$" { fail $test return -1 } differentiate between success and failure, since after processing the "" part we now have in the buffer " to quit---". Thus, it is possible to do something like this, using a new variable `seen_return', although I must say, I don't like it at all. But I don't see any other way how to cure this (at least yet) without modifying the lib/gdb.exp. Ran the test with both read{,1}. Comments or complaints, please? set test "print c" set seen_return 0 gdb_test_multiple $test $test { "" { incr seen_return exp_continue } -re "\\$\[0-9\]+ = \{loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong = 0, static field = \{\r\n---Type " { incr seen_return exp_continue } -re " to continue, or q " { incr seen_return exp_continue } -re " to quit---$" { if { $seen_return >= 2 } { pass $test } else { fail $test return -1 } } } Thanks, Marek
