init_type (and arch_integer_type) currently use a special hack to set the TYPE_NOSIGN flag if the type name is exactly "char". This commit moves the hack up to the callers of those routines. The special case currently can hit only for types created from dwarf2read, but read_base_type actually implements the "char" check itself, so it is redundant to do it in init_type as well. (Note that stabsread.c and the other type readers always pass NULL as name to init_type, so the special case can never hit for those.) A few other cases create pre-definded types with a hard-coded name of "char"; the commit simply moves setting the TYPE_NOSIGN flag to those places. No functional change intended. gdb/ChangeLog: * gdbtypes.c (init_type): Remove "char" special case. (arch_integer_type): Likewise. (gdbtypes_post_init): Set TYPE_NOSIGN for "char" type. (objfile_type): Likewise. * mdebugread.c (basic_type): Likewise. * stabsread.c (rs6000_builtin_type): Likewise. Signed-off-by: Ulrich Weigand <ulrich.weigand@de.ibm.com>
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.
