Here is an example with str_list which is a linked list having a corresponding
pretty printer:
-var-create - * str_list
^done,name="var1",numchild="3",value="0x9ae2c90",type="GList
*",thread-id="1",has_more="0"
(gdb)
-enable-pretty-printing
^done
(gdb)
-var-create - * str_list
^done,name="var2",numchild="0",value="{...}",type="GList
*",thread-id="1",displayhint="array",dynamic="1",has_more="1"
(gdb)
-var-evaluate-expression var2
^done,value="{...}"
(gdb)
-var-evaluate-expression var1
^done,value="0x9ae2c90"
(gdb)
-var-set-visualizer var2 None
^done
(gdb)
-var-evaluate-expression var2
^done,value="{...}"
(gdb)
I expect to get value="0x9ae2c90" instead of value="{...}" as the pretty printer
has been removed.
Note that -var-list-children and -var-update returns the right value, the same
than for var1, without the pretty printer.
I can restore the pretty printer, using -var-set-visualizer var2
gdb.default_visualizer.
I'm run this test with gdb version 7.0.50.20091001-cvs
