Re: breakpoint commands no more working due to MI front-end

[David Lamy-Charrier <david dot lamy at gmail dot com>]

Daniel,

Thanks for your help.
Here attached is a log between Eclipse and GDB.
GDB stops on a breakpoint where it is supposed to display a value and
then continue.
Unfortunately, it seems that it first informs Eclipse that it stops
and Eclipse query infos about threads, stack-frame... and the commands
attached to the breakpoint are never executed.

When GDB stops on a breakpoint with commands associated, does it
inform the front-end with MI commands ? if yes, is it after executing
the commands or before ?

Thanks,
David
