Re: [PATCH 3/3] Add -file-list-shared-libraries MI command


Thanks for the comments! A few questions/suggestions below.

Hi Marc-Andre,

Great that you're tackling this.  Thanks much for digging into GDB.  :-)
I like this.  As for following GDB's code standards, it's almost perfect.

But I have questions on the MI output, though.  See below.

I don't see where the documentation describes what the
attributes of each list element are.  Sorry if I missed it.

I find it surprising that the attributes output don't match
attributes output by =library-loaded ?  I'd think they should
match.  That'd simplify the documentation too, as one place
would refer to the other for attributes list.

BTW, =library-loaded doesn't output from/to.  ISTR that that
was discussed and left out, because from/to assume there's
a contiguous range to report, while that's not true on all
targets (i.e., assumes a single segment).  So it seems to
me that that's a separate discussion/patch would better
be addressed in both places.

Those attributes are from the "info shared" command which is what this new MI command is inspired from. The from/to are shown in Eclipse and I personally use it to know in which library a given stack frame is, in absence of debug symbols. I could change the attributes to be just like "=library-loaded" but it would be inconsistent with "info shared" and will remove information that was available before. Perhaps the best way forward would be to make all attributes the same as "=library-loaded" but also add the from/to. To make the MI more future proof, it could be a list of from/to segments instead, but for now it will only one segment. What do you think?

error doesn't return.  No need for the break.

So seems to me that the inner body of this loop would be better
calling a function that is shared with =library-loaded.

Lowercase, no period at end, and use imperative:

	"get list of shared libraries"
