Pinging Michael C

[Daniel Jacobowitz]

Michael,

Are you still around and at this address?  I haven't heard from you in some
time, and David Carlton's C++ testsuite patches from August are still
awaiting review:
  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-08/msg00695.html
  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-08/msg00472.html
  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-08/msg00469.html

As is one of Jim Blandy's:
  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-08/msg00670.html

[The Sunday Project doesn't seem to have been updated since the end of May,
either.]

I'm about to do a couple of very drastic things to the output of the C++
type printer, and there's going to be a lot of testsuite traffic to go with
them.  If you no longer have time for GDB, I can ask someone else
(Fernando?) to approve them, but I wanted to check with you first.

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.


>   http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-08/msg00472.html

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

I hadn't actually looked at this one.  David, there's an easier way -
if you look in lib/gdb.exp, gdb_get_line_number.  Is that closer to
what you want?  It should be more reliable than 'next'ing.

(Fernando, this is exactly what the GNU coding standards say a
ChangeLog entry should look like - just what changed, not why it was
changed, which belongs only in the code.  What else are you looking
for?)

Fortunately, David has since fixed the bug.  I think this patch is
ready to go in, once we agree on ChangeLog formatting.

I have an even better idea (I think :).  I'll post an RFC for it in a
second.

Test looks fine to me from the C++ side, with setup_kfail if necessary.

Also looks good.

Just what the new file is for/what it does.

Like:

        * gcore.c: New file.  Implement new command 'generate-core-file'.


But now I see that this is not being enforced lately. I liked that 
feature. :-(

Honestly, I don't know if either of them is reliable, as is written.
The situation is that m-static.cc constructs a bunch of objects that
it doesn't do anything with; m-static.exp tries to stop after each
object is constructed, and then examine what the object looks like.

And it seems to me that, whether you use next or breakpoints (and
whether you do the latter with hard-coded numbers (blech), relative
offsets, or with gdb_get_line_number), you're going to run into
problems in that GDB might not be willing to stop at every line, and
that whether or not it is willing might depend on the specific
compiler, compiler options, etc. that are being used.

Personally, I don't see any reason why the test shouldn't just
construct all the objects before inspecting any of them with GDB.  So
what makes sense to me would be to put a breakpoint on the return line
(using gdb_get_line_number, presumably), run until that, and only then
inspect all the objects that have been constructed.

But if people don't like that, I'd prefer to stick with the current
next'ing (with a break +2 throw in for fun).  I think that would be as
reliable and easier to maintain than gdb_get_line_number.  The latter
only makes sense if people might later insert lines that should be
skipped in the middle of the extant constructors; that doesn't seem
too plausible to me.

I don't mind making them longer, but Andrew yells at me whenever I
include long comments.  So I'd rather not make the ChangeLog entries
more verbose without hearing from him first.

Right, and of course I'll update the comment in the .exp file
accordingly.


So would it be okay if I changed the test with all the next's to
construct all the objects before examining any of them, updated the
comments on the one test to reflect the fact that the bug has been
fixed, and then check them in?

I like this.  Would you mind doing it that way?  It's much less
error-prone.

Well, I think Fernando has approved the testsuite-side and I'm fine
with the C++ of the tests.  I'd say yes.

Fernando and I were discussing the idea of:

gdb.base/gdb-bugs.exp (gdb.base/base-bugs.exp?)
gdb.mi/mi-bugs.exp

Re: Pinging Michael C

[Michael Elizabeth Chastain]

I've been inactive since May, and I'll be inactive for probably another
couple of months.  I will always be at this address.  I do plan to come
back but if someone else can pick up the C++ testsuite stuff I will be
grateful.
