[PATCH 1/1] gdb, python: update threads in Inferior.threads ()


From: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com>

When querying an inferior's threads in Python in a remote debugging
configuration, only the already known threads are returned.

Update the thread list in infpy_threads () before creating the Python objects.

2012-07-26 Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com>

	* python/py-inferior.c (infpy_threads): Call update_thread_list ().

testsuite/
	* gdb.python/py-inferior.c (thread): New function.
	(check_threads): New function.
	(test_threads): New function.
	* gdb.python/py-inferior.exp: Added test.
	Replaced runto with continue to breakpoint.
