Hello,
This patch series introduces two new GDB/MI commands to catch
Ada exceptions, implementing the equivalent of the "catch exception"
and "catch assert" CLI commands. I will present these commands
in the patch that actually implements them.
The first couple of patches are ada-lang.c cleanups, self contained
and useful on their own, so I think I will be checking them in
in a few days, pending comments.
The 3rd patch is the actual patch adding the new commands.
And the 4th patch updates an already-existing testcase that
was already testing Ada exception catching in GDB/MI mode, but
using the CLI ("catch ...") commands instead.
This is a bit of an RFC/RFA, as the patch introduces new commands,
and I want to make sure that we're happy with the user interface.
Once we've agreed on the commands' interface, I will write the NEWS
and doco patches.
Thank you!
