For historical reasons, the TYPE_FLOATFORMAT element is still set to hold
an array of two floatformat structs, one for big-endian and the other for
little-endian. When accessing the element via floatformat_from_type,
the code would check the type's byte order and return the appropriate
floatformat.
However, these days this is quite unnecessary, since the type's byte order
is already known at the time the type is allocated and the floatformat is
installed into TYPE_FLOATFORMAT. Therefore, we can just install the correct
version here.
Also, moves the (now trivially simple) floatformat_from_type accessor to
gdbtypes.{c,h}, since it doesn't really need to be in doublest.c now.
gdb/ChangeLog
2017-09-27 Ulrich Weigand <uweigand@de.ibm.com>
* doublest.h (floatformat_from_type): Move to gdbtypes.h.
* doublest.c (floatformat_from_type): Move to gdbtypes.c.
* gdbtypes.h (union type_specific): Make field floatformat hold
just a single struct floatformat, not an array.
(floatformat_from_type): Move here.
* gdbtypes.c (floatformat_from_type): Move here. Update to
changed TYPE_FLOATFORMAT definition.
(verify_floatformat): Update to changed TYPE_FLOATFORMAT.
(recursive_dump_type): Likewise.
(init_float_type): Install correct floatformat for byte order.
(arch_float_type): Likewise.
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; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. 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.
