[Bug breakpoints/17375] New: Remove printing of "No symbol table loaded." when setting breakpoints before the "file" command?


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17375

            Bug ID: 17375
           Summary: Remove printing of "No symbol table loaded." when
                    setting breakpoints before the "file" command?
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: breakpoints
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: xdje42 at gmail dot com

It's kinda odd to print "No symbol table loaded." when we support pending
breakpoints.
I could be setting a breakpoint in a shared library that hasn't been loaded
yet, so why does it matter whether or not I've used, for example, the "file"
command to specify the executable?

bash$ gdb
(gdb) break abort
No symbol table is loaded.  Use the "file" command.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) y

Breakpoint 1 (abort) pending.
(gdb)
