I am assuming you all have looked at the C++ side of these tests...

I wonder if next will relly be more reliable.  Anyway, we can try -- the 
test is not about breakpoints.

The following ChangeLog entries need some more info though:

	* gdb.c++/m-static.cc: Add test 4.
	* gdb.c++/m-static.h: New file.
	* gdb.c++/m-static1.cc: New file.

I don't think we want to add tests to make gdb dump core to the 
testsuite right away.  It should go in as soon as someone fixes the 
problem to prevent a regression.  Alternatively we can add it in and 
explicitly skip the test with a explicit call to the kfail proc...

I don't see anything wrong with the test file itself, but the ChangeLog 
also needs some more info (what the new files do/test).

	* gdb.c++/printmethod.exp: New file.
	* gdb.c++/printmethod.cc: New file.

I was talking to Andrew about collecting these regression tests into a 
single file (someone would eventually move them into one of the other 
files if the test can be associated with some feature).

Andrew, what was the name of the file? I forgot...

Again, the test s OK but the ChangeLog entries need more info.
P.S.: If this is not fixed yet please use setup_kfail and refer to 
appropriate Gnats bug report.

Nice!  Just needs a correct ChangeLog entry in the proper format and at 
least mentioning what the new tests are for (although one could guess 
from the file names, but we don't usually rely on that).


Regards to all,
Fernando
