[Bug python/16033] New: Python API documentation misses defining some concepts


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16033

            Bug ID: 16033
           Summary: Python API documentation misses defining some concepts
           Product: gdb
           Version: 7.6
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: python
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: naesten at gmail dot com

The meanings of some attributes/functions are not actually explained.

A few, like Block.start and Block.end, are obvious enough that this isn't
really an issue; however, many of them refer to fairly gdb-internal concepts,
like Block.global_block, Block.static_block, Block.is_global, and
Block.is_static.  So, for this example, a couple of sentences defining static
and global blocks would be handy.  (It also wouldn't hurt to say whether
Block.end is inclusive or exclusive, though.)
