- Subject: [PATCH] tui: don't overwrite a subprompt line that was given no input
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
This patch fixes the following bug in TUI:
(gdb) break foo
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) <ENTER>
By submitting an empty command line to a subprompt, the subprompt line
is undesirably cleared and overwritten. Outside of a subprompt,
clearing the prompt line after submitting an empty command line is
intended behavior which complements GDB's repeat-command shorthand. But
inside a subprompt, this behavior is undesired since the shorthand is
not applicable in that case. We should retain the subprompt line even
when it's given to input.
This patch makes sure that a prompt given an empty command line is
cleared and overwritten only if it's not a subprompt. To acheive this,
a new predicate is defined which informs us whether the current input
handler is a subprompt.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* top.h (gdb_in_subprompt_p): Declare.
* top.c (gdb_subprompt_depth): Define.
(gdb_in_subprompt_p): Define.
(gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup): Decrement gdb_subprompt_depth.
(gdb_readline_wrapper): Increment gdb_subprompt_depth.
* tui/tui-io.c (tui_getc): Don't clear the prompt line if we
are in a subprompt.
