forked from Imagelibrary/binutils-gdb
Currently gdb.parameter doesn't raise an exception if an
ambiguous name is used, it instead returns the value of the
last partly matching parameter:
```
(gdb) show print sym
Ambiguous show print command "sym": symbol, symbol-filename, symbol-loading.
(gdb) show print symbol-loading
Printing of symbol loading messages is "full".
(gdb) py print(gdb.parameter("print sym"))
full
```
It's because lookup_cmd_composition_1 tries to detect
ambigous names by checking the return value of find_cmd
for CMD_LIST_AMBIGUOUS, which never happens, since only
lookup_cmd_1 returns CMD_LIST_AMBIGUOUS.
Instead the nfound argument contains the number of found
matches.
By using it instead, and by setting *CMD to the special value
CMD_LIST_AMBIGUOUS in this case, gdbpy_parameter can now show
the appropriate error message:
```
(gdb) py print(gdb.parameter("print sym"))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
RuntimeError: Parameter `print sym' is ambiguous.
Error while executing Python code.
(gdb) py print(gdb.parameter("print symbol"))
True
(gdb) py print(gdb.parameter("print symbol-"))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
RuntimeError: Parameter `print symbol-' is ambiguous.
Error while executing Python code.
(gdb) py print(gdb.parameter("print symbol-load"))
full
```
Since the document command also uses lookup_cmd_composition, it needed
to check for CMD_LIST_AMBIGUOUS as well, so it now also shows an
"Ambiguous command" error message in this case.
