Subject: A thread has-a selected/current frame
Date: Thu, 09 Oct 2003 14:24:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F856FA3.9020300@redhat.com> (raw)
Hello,
At present the selected and current frame are maintained as single
globals, and independant of the selected and current thread. As a
consequence, each time GDB switches between threads, all global frame
state is flushed.
I'm intending to add a "current frame" and "selected frame" to
"thread_info" so that, instead this can be maintained on a per-thread basis.
The tricky one is the sentinel-frame. It needs to be able to perform an
arbitrary projection of the virtual thread's register onto the target
below's physical threads and memory. I think this suggests a
sentinel-frame parameterized by target, and not just the current regcache.
Thoughts?
Andrew
