Re: Triggering qSymbol packets

Hi again,

An update on yesterday's emails - I've sorted this one out. In gdb5.3
the trigger of the qOffset packet, in remote_start_remote, was nested
inside an #ifdef SOLIB... structure. In 6.4 (but interestingly, not
6.3), this #ifdef is more discriminating, and does permit the qSymbol on
target connect, even if SOLIB is not in use.

It's still not working yet, but certainly gets a lot further than before.

Thanks for your help,

John
