[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1023 bytes --]

Per suggestion here,
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-01/msg00296.html, the
attached patch adds a new class 'gdb.Architecture' with a single
method 'name'. I will add tests and docs after we are OK with the code
changes.

ChangeLog:

2013-01-21  Siva Chandra Reddy  <sivachandra@google.com>

        Add a new class gdb.Architecture which exposes GDB's
        internal representation of architecture via GDB Python API.

        * Makefile.in: Add entries corresponding to the new file
        python/py-arch.c.
        * python/py-arch.c: Implement gdb.Architecture class.
        * python/py-frame.c (frapy_arch): Implement the method
        gdb.Frame.architecture().
        (frame_object_methods): Add 'architecture' to the method table.
        * python/python-internal.h: Add declarations of new utility
        functions.
        * python/python.c (_initialize_python): Initialize
        gdb.Architecture class.
        (GdbMethods): Add 'current_architecture' to the method table.

Thanks,
Siva Chandra
