PR8554: New command to save breakpoints to a file
- From: Pedro Alves <pedro at codesourcery dot com>

- Date: Fri, 9 Apr 2010 03:41:14 +0100
- Subject: PR8554: New command to save breakpoints to a file
(I finished this instead of dumping it.)
Add a new save-breakpoints command to save breakpoint definitions
to a file. Use the "source" command to bring the breakpoints back in.
<http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8554>
This handles all types of breakpoints, tracepoints, catchpoints,
watchpoints, whatnot. The new breakpoint_ops->print_recreate
method implementation for all catchpoints is always mostly
a simplified version of breakpoint_ops->print_mention method.
Docs/NEWS bits included below.
