Subject: show inferior-tty
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2005 02:13:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <17105.54757.46681.109597@farnswood.snap.net.nz> (raw)
Firstly a doc error (GDB/MI -inferior-tty-show):
The corresponding GDB command is `show inferior-tty /dev/pts/1'.
should presumably read:
The corresponding GDB command is `show inferior-tty'.
Secondly, if I don't set the tty, I get:
(gdb) show inferior-tty
Terminal for future runs of program being debugged is "".
I think that it should still display a value. Also perhaps it could just
say e.g
Terminal for future runs is "/dev/pts/1".
I don't know why the terminal name has to be quoted, but I see that this
practice is sometimes used for other show commands
With MI, if I don't set the tty, I get:
(gdb)
-inferior-tty-show
^done
(gdb)
Even if its still considered inappropriate to give a value in this case, I
think it should give a value e.g.
(gdb)
-inferior-tty-show
^done,inferior_tty_terminal=""
(gdb)
Incidentally, I don't see the need for this MI command or -inferior-tty-set
because:
(gdb)
-gdb-set inferior-tty /dev/pts/1
^done
(gdb)
-gdb-show inferior-tty
^done,value="/dev/pts/1"
(gdb)
