I noticed that $_gdb_setting_str was not working with 'args', e.g.:
$ gdb -q --args /tmp/hello.x arg1 arg2 arg3
Reading symbols from /tmp/hello.x...
(gdb) show args
Argument list to give program being debugged when it is started is "arg1 arg2 arg3".
(gdb) print $_gdb_setting_str("args")
$1 = ""
This is because the 'args' setting is implemented using a scratch
variable ('inferior_args_scratch') which is updated when the user does
'set args ...'. There is then a function 'set_args_command' which is
responsible for copying the scratch area into the current inferior.
However, when the user sets the arguments via the command line the
scratch variable is not updated, instead the arguments are pushed
straight into the current inferior.
There is a second problem, when the current inferior changes the
scratch area is not updated, which means that the value returned will
only ever reflect the last call to 'set args ...' regardless of which
inferior is currently selected.
Luckily, the fix is pretty easy, set/show variables have an
alternative API which requires we provide some getter and setter
functions. With this done the scratch variable can be removed and the
value returned will now always reflect the current inferior.
While working on set/show args I also rewrote show_args_command to
remove the use of deprecated_show_value_hack.
