GDB remote user interface 0.0.0 release

GDB remote user interface 0.0.0 release

[teawater]

Hi all,

I add a new interpreter that called GDB remote user interface(GDBRUI)
to the GDB.
After add this interpreter, GDB can be controlled by the other
programe(such as an IDE) via TCP.
Now, I have already added this interpreter to the GDB-6.3 and GDB-6.4.
And I have wrotten a little command line test program called ruictl
that can control GDB via TCP.
You can get these codes from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gdbrui/
To use GDBRUI, you can execute "gdb --rui port" to make a port listen
the connection and execute "ruictl addr port" to connect with GDB.
After that, you can control GDB with ruictl like in GDB command line.
Now, I'm writting the DOC and a VIM plug-in to make VIM can support GDBRUI.
How do you think about it?

Thanks,
teawater

Do you still use the -i=mi or --annotate protocol to communicate with
GDB over the port? or have you written an entirely new protocol?

I wrote an entirely new protocol.

Like Daniel asked, why would you do that? What's wrong with gdb/mi?
Does it some how not fit your needs?

I don't understand why you needed it.  Why is this better than talking
the existing GDB/MI protocol over a pipe?

GDB/MI is good interface. But I think it's not very easy to support.
Sometimes, the coder only need a interface that can send some command
to GDB & get the return. I think support GDBRUI is easy.
