Re: [patch] not able to set pending breakpoint at qualified C++ function names


Hello!

Sorry about the excessive quoting below but both the original email and  
its reply are rather old so thought full context might be helpful in this 
case.

Thanks for the explanation!  I've changed this as you suggest.

Emailed separately.

Sorry about this - ChangeLog added and nits addressed.  Well, I hope the 
indentation thing is addressed - I'm afraid this file contains a strange 
mix of tabs and spaces, so I've generally copied the leading whitespace on 
preceding lines in each bit.

New patch follows.

	* linespec.c (find_method): Add new not_found_ptr parameter to
	bring in line with symtab_from_filename, decode_variable.
	(decode_compound): Likewise.  Also propagate not_found_ptr to 
	find_method.
	(decode_line_1): Propagage not_found_ptr to decode_compound.
	(cplusplus_error): Now throws NOT_FOUND_ERROR.
