[RFC][patch 1/9] initial Python support

- Subject: [RFC][patch 1/9] initial Python support
- References: <20080429155212.444237503@br.ibm.com>
This patch adds the initial code for Python scripting support in GDB,
and adapts the build system accordingly.
The Python support included in this patch was explained by Tromey thusly:
> You can evaluate python, either as a block, as a one-liner, or as an
> expression. I cleaned up the code so that it works properly in other
> block structures, like commands or loops. The expression evaluation
> code makes an attempt to convert python values to gdb values as
> appropriate (strings, ints, and floating-point types). Some contrived
> examples...
>
> Block form:
>
> python
> print 23
> end
>
> One liner:
>
> python print 23
>
> Expression:
>
> break foo if $(23 > 5)
>
> There's also a Python command to pass any string to the gdb CLI, and
> another one to get the value of any "set/show" variable.
Regarding changes to the building system, the patch adds the
--with-python option to configure. With the option set to yes or auto
(which is the default), configure will first search for -lpython2.5 and
failing that, -lpython2.4. If no Python library is found, or if the
--without-python option is given, GDB will be compiled without Python
scripting support.
There are two caveats with the configure.ac changes: one is that they
trigger a bug in autoconf 2.59 when library names contain a dot
(e.g., libpython2.5). I regenerated the configure script using
autoconf 2.61, but the proper way to fix this at the moment (since we
must use version 2.59) is to backport the fix using the
config/override.m4 mechanism. I didn't look into that yet.
The other caveat is that I had trouble with gnulib configure script
when using this patch. I didn't investigate the issue yet, and to test
this code I removed gnulib from the compilation. Maybe I didn't
regenerate the configure scripts properly.
