From b14285f60edd8d072778b3d6d07d0e1dd0fb52c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joel Brobecker Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2010 22:52:04 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Add support for gdb.PYTHONDIR as $gdb_datadir/python. Python scripts to be used by GDB can be stored in that directory, and will be automatically found by the interpreter when importing them. This patch also sets up /gdb as the directory where gdb submodules can be stored. For now, there is nothing there, but it can now be added easily without further code changes. gdb/ChangeLog: 2010-06-24 Joel Brobecker * python/python.c (_initialize_python): Add new "constant" PYTHONDIR in gdb module. Insert this path at the head of sys.path. Set gdb.__path__ to gdb.PYTHONDIR + '/gdb' and exec its __init__.py script if it exists in that directory. --- gdb/ChangeLog | 7 +++++++ gdb/python/python.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 28 insertions(+) diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index c94b08cc04c..009c16a52bc 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,10 @@ +2010-06-24 Joel Brobecker + + * python/python.c (_initialize_python): Add new "constant" + PYTHONDIR in gdb module.
