From: Pedro Alves Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 18:24:59 +0000 (+0000) Subject: Update prompt_for_continue comments X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=720d2e96b424bb4bb1f7021f86763ff3df078e2b;p=binutils-gdb.git Update prompt_for_continue comments These comments are out of date -- we no longer call gdb_readline. And I think that mentioning the event loop is more useful here than whatever GO32 issue had with gdb_readline, which may even no longer be an issue. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-03-09 Pedro Alves * utils.c (prompt_for_continue): Update comments. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index 264c8a74a44..e715c9712f9 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,7 @@ +2016-03-09 Pedro Alves + + * utils.c (prompt_for_continue): Update comments. + 2016-03-09 Pedro Alves * event-top.c (async_annotation_suffix): Delete. diff --git a/gdb/utils.c b/gdb/utils.c index 977314b95a2..97e5133f7a4 100644 --- a/gdb/utils.c +++ b/gdb/utils.c @@ -1808,7 +1808,9 @@ set_screen_width_and_height (int width, int height) } /* Wait, so the user can read what's on the screen.
