RE: [RFA] Submit process record and replay third time, 3/9


Hi,

again, thanks for the great work on Process Record and Replay.
I almost have the Eclipse DSF-GDB frontent for it.
However I ran into a small issue where a frontend is unable to turn
off Record.  I'm not sure if there should be an MI command corresponding
to the 'record' command, but if I have to use 'record' directly to
turn *off* reverse debugging, I get a prompt

"Process record target already running, do you want to delete the old
record log?(y or [n])"

The prompt is not the problem.  The problem is that the default is 'no'.
I think that when running in a frontend (at least in eclipse), the
default
choice automatically gets selected. Therefore, the frontend cannot turn
off
recording.

Could we make the default to be 'yes'?
I get the feeling there is a better way to handle this... I just don't
know how.

Thanks

Marc
