MI testcases currently all fail on native Windows with:
Running /c/gdb/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/mi-simplerun.exp ...
ERROR: (timeout) GDB never initialized after 10 seconds.
This is because when GDB is started in MI mode, it prints info to the
terminal before -iex options are processed. I.e., before the "maint
set console-translation-mode binary" command in
gdb -nw -nx -q -iex "set height 0" -iex "set width 0" \
-iex "set interactive-mode on" \
-iex "maint set console-translation-mode binary" \
-i=mi
... is processed. This results in GDB printing early output with
\r\r\n, like can be easily seen by passing --debug to runtest:
expect: does "=thread-group-added,id="i1"\r\r\n=cmd-param-changed,param="width",value="4294967295"\r\r\n=cmd-param-changed,param="interactive-mode",value="on"\r\r\n(gdb) \r\n" (spawn_id exp10) match regular expression "~"GNU.*\r\n~".*[(]gdb[)] \r\n$"? Gate "~"GNU*\r\n~"*gdb? \r\n"? gate=no
Fix this by adding a new Windows-only --binary-output command line
option to GDB, which is processed much earlier than -iex, and making
the testsuite pass that instead of "maint set console-translation-mode
binary".
Remove "maint set console-translation-mode" completely, since the only
reason it existed was for the testsuite, and it was never included in
any release.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README, and so on. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
