Re: [RFA] completer test [was Re: [RFC] Cleanup for make_source_files_completion_list]


Hi Keith,

I know you have already committed the patch, but I just would like to
ask a few things.

Wouldn't it be better to use the "complete" command?  Here is what I see
when I use it:

    (gdb) complete break filesy
    break filesym
    break filesym.c

Also, ISTR "send_gdb" is deprecated, and one should use
"gdb_test_multiple" instead.  WDYT?

Thanks,
