[RFA] Remote symbol look-up (resubmission)
- To: gdb-patches at sources dot redhat dot com, cagney at cygnus dot com
- Subject: [RFA] Remote symbol look-up (resubmission)
- From: Michael Snyder <msnyder at cygnus dot com>
- Date: Fri, 11 May 2001 10:25:57 -0700
- Organization: Red Hat
This is a re-submission, with documentation and changes to answer Andrew's concerns.
2001-05-10 Michael Snyder <msnyder@redhat.com>
* solib.h (no_shared_libraries): Export definition.
* remote.c (remote_new_objfile): New function. Called whenever
a new objfile is created (which is generally a new shared library).
(remote_check_symbols): Send notification to the target that it is
now a good time to ask for symbol look-up service, and handle any
symbol look-up requests. Called whenever a new symbol file becomes
available, and from remote open.
(hex2bin): Require explicit count, don't accept null-terminated str.
(set_remote_protocol_qSymbol_packet_cmd): New function.
(show_remote_protocol_qSymbol_packet_cmd): New function.
(remote_open_1, remote_async_open_1): Call remote_check_symbols.
(_initialize_remote): Hook remote_new_objfile into the new
objfile notification chain. Add set/show remote symbol-lookup
commands.
* doc/gdb.texinfo: Document the new 'qSymbol' and 'QSymbol' packets.
