Re: [RFA] Python: raise exception on field-related gdb.Type methods if it's not struct or union


This got a bit more complicated once I looked at the testcases.

First, it's not just struct and union types that have fields; enum types also do.  So the common code that checks for valid types has to allow those three.

Second, the fields method is also defined for array types, where it returns a list with a single entry that's a range type.  I made that a special case since everything else doesn't apply to array types.

Attached is an updated patch including new test cases.

ChangeLog:

2011-11-09  Paul Koning  <paul_koning@dell.com>

	* python/py-type.c (typy_get_composite): New function.
	(typy_nonzero): New function.
	(typy_values): Rename from typy_fields.
	(typy_fields): New function.
	(typy_length): Raise exception if not struct, union, or enum type.
	(typy_getitem): Ditto.
	(typy_has_key): Ditto.
	(typy_make_iter): Ditto.

testsuite/ChangeLog:

2011-11-09  Paul Koning  <paul_koning@dell.com>

	* gdb.python/py-type.exp: New testcases for exceptions on scalar
	types.
