>Description:
If you create a conditional breakpoint on a function call, which takes one string argument, like:

(gdb) break test.cpp:1 if (foo("Rohit"))
(gdb) info break

Then "info break" prints the output in which the argument to the function, foo above, get printed as a comma separated ASCII values instead of the string itself:

What gets printed is :
        ....
        stop only if foo ( {82 'R', 111 'o', 104 'h', 105 'i', 116 't', 0 '\0'})

I was expecting:
stop only if foo("Rohit")

thanks

>How-To-Repeat:
To reproduce:

1. Create the following testcase in test.cpp:

bool foo(char* xxx) {return true;}
int main() {foo("Rohit");return 0;}

2. Compile "g++ -g test.cpp"

3. Start "gdb a.out"

4. Type these gdb commands:
(gdb)break test.cpp:1 if (foo("Rohit"))
(gdb)info break
