The 'info variables', its alias 'whereis', and 'info functions' all include non-debug symbols in the output by default. The list of non-debug symbols can sometimes be quite long, resulting in the debug symbol based results being scrolled off the screen. This commit adds a '-n' flag to all of the commands listed above that excludes the non-debug symbols from the results, leaving just the debug symbol based results. gdb/ChangeLog: * cli/cli-utils.c (info_print_options_defs): Delete. (make_info_print_options_def_group): Delete. (extract_info_print_options): Delete. (info_print_command_completer): Delete. (info_print_args_help): Add extra parameter, and optionally include text about -n flag. * cli/cli-utils.h (struct info_print_options): Delete. (extract_info_print_options): Delete declaration. (info_print_command_completer): Delete declaration. (info_print_args_help): Add extra parameter, extend header comment. * python/python.c (gdbpy_rbreak): Pass additional parameter to search_symbols. * stack.c (struct info_print_options): New type. (info_print_options_defs): New file scoped variable. (make_info_print_options_def_group): New static function. (info_print_command_completer): New static function. (info_locals_command): Update to use new local functions. (info_args_command): Likewise. (_initialize_stack): Add extra parameter to calls to info_print_args_help. * symtab.c (search_symbols): Add extra parameter, use this to possibly excluse non-debug symbols. (symtab_symbol_info): Add extra parameter, which is passed on to search_symbols. (struct info_print_options): New type. (info_print_options_defs): New file scoped variable. (make_info_print_options_def_group): New static function. (info_print_command_completer): New static function. (info_variables_command): Update to use local functions, and pass extra parameter through to symtab_symbol_info. (info_functions_command): Likewise. (info_types_command): Pass additional argument through to symtab_symbol_info. (rbreak_command): Pass extra argument to search_symbols. (_initialize_symtab): Add extra arguments for calls to info_print_args_help, and update help text for 'info variables', 'whereis', and 'info functions' commands. * symtab.h (search_symbols): Add extra argument to declaration. * NEWS: Mention new flags. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (Symbols): Add information about the -n flag to "info variables" and "info functions". gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/info-fun.exp: Extend to test the -n flag for 'info functions'. Reindent as needed. * gdb.base/info-var-f1.c: New file. * gdb.base/info-var-f2.c: New file. * gdb.base/info-var.exp: New file. * gdb.base/info-var.h: New file.
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.
