This patch fixes a failure that happens when a structure has a static
member whose type is the same as itself. From the bug report:
Example code:
struct A
{
static A Empty;
int a;
};
int main(void) {
A a;
return 0;
}
Output:
(gdb) ptype/o A
/* offset | size */ type = struct A {
static struct A {
static struct A {
static struct A {
static struct A {
static struct A {
static struct A {
... # infinite loop
The problem here is that GDB is not taking into account the fact that
static members inside a class/struct are not stored in the
class/struct, and therefore they should not be accounted for during
the display of the offsets/sizes. The fix is simple: we just check if
the field we're dealing with (on
c-typeprint.c:c_type_print_base_struct_union) is static, and if it is
then we don't iterate over it.
This patch also adds a new test for this case, and doesn't introduce
any regressions. I believe it is important enough to be included in
the 8.2 branch.
OK?

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.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
