228 This exists because there is no real line-buffering on Windows, see

230 so the stdout is either fully-buffered or non-buffered. We can't
231 make stdout non-buffered, because of two concerns:
233 1. Non-buffering hurts performance.
234 2. Non-buffering may change GDB's behavior when it is interacting
235 with a front-end, such as Emacs.
237 We leave stdout as fully buffered, but flush it first when
238 something is written to stderr.
240 Note that the 'write_async_safe' method is not overridden, because
241 there's no way to flush a stream in an async-safe manner.
242 Fortunately, it doesn't really matter, because:
244 1. That method is only used for printing internal debug output
245 from signal handlers.
247 2. Windows hosts don't have a concept of async-safeness. Signal
248 handlers run in a separate thread, so they can call the regular
249 non-async-safe output routines freely.
