Re: testsuite patches


   Date: Tue, 16 Mar 1999 20:02:28 -0500
   From: Mark Salter <msalter@cygnus.com>

   Here are some patches I needed to apply to get the gdb
   testsuite to work correctly on remote targets using
   cygmon. The basic problem was that some of the tests 
   expected 'run' to work on a remote target and expected
   programs to exit with a nice message. There's also an
   unitialized char array in miscexprs.c

Thanks Mark!  I checked in a fix for miscexprs.c earlier today,
but the rest of the changes will be really helpful.

(For you net people who might be wondering what this is all about,
Mark Salter is our board support expert, and he's been working on a
board support package + ROM monitor named CygMon.  Although this
package hasn't been released to the net, there is sentiment within
Cygnus for making such a release, since it would really help people
get up and running with GNU tools on embedded systems, and spread the
Cygnus-or-whatever-it-will-become :-) name around more.  If you think
the net release would be a great idea, send me mail and I'll forward
to the appropriate decisionmakers.)
