From: Christopher Faylor <cgf@bbc.com> Date: Sat, 17 Jan 1998 00:20:59 -0500 (EST) The cygwin32 port of gdb has an annoying habit of hanging hanging Windows NT if the gdb 'kill' command is used or if an attempt is made to exit gdb without allowing the debugged program to run to completion. This patch should solve that problem. -Chris Faylor Patch from cgf@bbc.com (Chris Faylor) * win32-nat.c (child_mourn_inferior): Make sure that child continues from EXIT_PROCESS_DEBUG or it could hang around forever. (child_kill_inferior): Respond to all debug events as the child is terminating or risk invoking a Windows NT bug which eventually hangs the whole system. Thanks. I've been annoyed by that problem for a while, but never quite enough to figure out what was causing it. I checked the patches into the main sources. Ian
