Re: ARM, registers, "frame 0", where's the PC?

i just did some more testing, it seems it disturbed GDB and INSIGHT
that it is not ok to answer a "continue" with a "S0" after the
target stopped again. I now use a "S00", which improves things
a lot. Yes, i just doublechecked that, when the target stops
after a "continue" and i send "S0", it tells me it stopped at
0x12345678, when i answer "S00", insight shows me where it stopped
in the window. Looking at "info gdb" this is specified, so
it is my mistake. I took that information from a file i found
in the web where it didn't state that S<signal> has to be
S<%02-Signal>. Maybe gdb/insight throws the answer "S0" away
and just ignores it and uses its last informations?
But anyway, when i answer "S00" there's a popup window every
time i stop. Looking at "info gdb", i'd say an answer with
"S" is preferred before "W", "X" or "T".
Looking at "man -S 7 signal" i'm confused and don't know
what signal number to use.
"W00": program exited normally
"X00": program exited with signal 0, Signal 0
"T00": program received signal 0, Signal 0
"S": doesn't work, same problem as before.
So i guess there has to be a certain number that doesn't bring
up that window/message.
"S01": SIGHUP
"S11": SIGSTOP
"OK": doesn't work, insight hangs.
Hmm, don't know, what could the preferred answer be?
Best regards,
Torsten.
