From: Andrew Burgess Date: Tue, 4 Apr 2023 08:56:00 +0000 (+0100) Subject: gdb: make set/show args work with $_gdb_setting_str X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cc09d372f664410aea226bfaa246aeb74fee8126;p=binutils-gdb.git gdb: make set/show args work with $_gdb_setting_str I noticed that $_gdb_setting_str was not working with 'args', e.g.: $ gdb -q --args /tmp/hello.x arg1 arg2 arg3 Reading symbols from /tmp/hello.x... (gdb) show args Argument list to give program being debugged when it is started is "arg1 arg2 arg3". (gdb) print $_gdb_setting_str("args") $1 = "" This is because the 'args' setting is implemented using a scratch variable ('inferior_args_scratch') which is updated when the user does 'set args ...'. There is then a function 'set_args_command' which is responsible for copying the scratch area into the current inferior. However, when the user sets the arguments via the command line the scratch variable is not updated, instead the arguments are pushed straight into the current inferior. There is a second problem, when the current inferior changes the scratch area is not updated, which means that the value returned will only ever reflect the last call to 'set args ...' regardless of which inferior is currently selected. Luckily, the fix is pretty easy, set/show variables have an alternative API which requires we provide some getter and setter functions. With this done the scratch variable can be removed and the value returned will now always reflect the current inferior. While working on set/show args I also rewrote show_args_command to remove the use of deprecated_show_value_hack.
