Hi,
command naming needs to follow what gets decided for 'compile print'.
This part sends the output to inferior stdout, only the next patch will
redirect it to GDB (so that for example it works for remote gdbserver).
It cannot work for core files as one cannot execute inferior code there.
There were some ideas such as compiling the entered sources into GCC
intermediate form (GIMPLE?) and interpret it by GDB on top of the core file.
That would be much more complicated, this implementation is made according to
Phil's specification.
Besides existing
(gdb) set compile-args
there will be now also:
(gdb) set compile-printf-args
Maybe it would be worth to start some set sub-category 'compile' such as:
(gdb) set compile args
(gdb) set compile printf-args
That would mean the whole process of deprecating 'set compile-args' etc.
