Does Jim care about any of this? I didn't see this question in the original note. The answer is we always ship the Developer Tools as a whole package, which includes Xcode & gdb, and just ask for the mi version we know it supports explicitly. We don't support taking one version of gdb & using it under an older or newer version of Xcode. I don't see any plans for us to separate the two in the forseeable future. So while I do care about this in an abstract sort of way, I can't see us using it. > > Sorry about the delay. > > I plan on getting at least this patch into GDB.

This was more for the convenience of the Xcode developers - so they could ask me to implement a command, then sketch out the implementation right away without having to wait for me to implement it. That is the level of handshaking that we do. Jim
