[Bug breakpoints/15697] New: Unnecessary =breakpoint-modified event when hitting dprintf


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15697

            Bug ID: 15697
           Summary: Unnecessary =breakpoint-modified event when hitting
                    dprintf
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: breakpoints
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: marc.khouzam at ericsson dot com

I believe there was an agreement that it was not a good idea to send a
=breakpoint-modified event each time a dprintf was hit.  When a dprintf is in a
loop, these event can become quite inefficient.  Furthermore, these events are
not sent when using 'agent' dprintf-style.

Please see discussion and agreement here:

(note that if this change is made, it would nullify Bug 15694)
