My own view was a little simpler: Delete the target_set_execdir method,
I'm guessing you meant "get" here?
and replace all the calls with a reference to the infrun global. I would
keep the target_set_execdir more or less as is; otherwise, you'll need
some kind of observer to notice when the execdir changes. The
"to_can_go_backwards" is an interesting idea, but in my opinion only
makes sense if the target_set_execdir method is removed. Otherwise,
we can treat target_set_execdir == NULL as cannot-go-backwards.
OK, so you're saying that "target_set_execdir" will set the
global infrun variable, not a target-defined variable?
I would have thought somebody would object to that on semantic grounds.
Then the only reason to put it into the target vector is so that
we can check for "cannot-go-backwards", and surely someone will
come back and tell me "well that is what you should call it then".
