From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Andrew Cagney To: GDB Discussion Subject: [5.1/mi] Enable MI interface Date: Wed, 21 Mar 2001 15:59:00 -0000 Message-id: <3AA2FA18.79205BFE@cygnus.com> X-SW-Source: 2001-03/msg00020.html Hello, A 5.1 release criteria is enabling the MI interface. Once my other MI questions get resolved, the biggest problem I can see with this is with the MI testsuite. Once MI is enabled the testsuite will kick in and, most likely, some targets will have additional failures. If anyone can see any problems with this, please start rasing them now :-) The change required to enable the MI is trivial. The consequences may not be :-) For reference, the testsuite output on a BSD UNIX system looks like: Running /home/scratch/GDB/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/mi-basics.exp ...

Well done Elena and Fernando! Andrew
