[PATCH] Fix gdb.mi/mi-file.exp for stubs.


Hi all,

There is a comment on mi-file.exp that says:

   # get the path and absolute path to the current executable
   #
   # In gdb 6.2 (at least), the default line number is set by
   # select_source_symtab to the first line of "main" minus
   # the value of "lines_to_list" (which defaults to 10) plus one.
   # --chastain 2004-08-13

That won't work for remote stubs.

The attached patch adds a call to mi_run_to_main with the following comment:

 # When debugging a stub, we can't depend on the current file
 # being the default file set by select_source_symtab.
 # When the gdb host connects to the stub, the stub will already be
 # running the target program stopped at a function
 # that probably isn't the one with main. We force
 # the file with main to be the current, so the following tests work.

Please review and commit.

Cheers,
Pedro Alves

* gdb.mi/mi-file.exp: Call mi_run_to_main if use_gdb_stub is set.
