Re: [RFC] Debug Methods in GDB Python

[Siva Chandra <sivachandra at google dot com>]

Hi all,

Took me longer than I had expected I but could spend some time last
couple of weeks and address all of Tom's comments from last time. Like
before, I do not have docs or tests as the Python side API is largely
un-reviewed I guess. However, I have put in code comments in the
latest version. The patch is attached and the ChangeLog is as below:

2013-06-17  Siva Chandra Reddy  <sivachandra@google.com>

        * Makefile.in: Add entries for new files
        * data-directory/Makefile.in: Add entery for new Python file
        * eval.c: Use new 'find_overload_match' signature.
        * ext-function.c: Support for working with functions/methods
        defined in an extension language.
        * ext-function.h: Support for working with functions/methods
        defined in an extension language.
        * python/lib/gdb/debugmethods.py: Python side of the support
        for debug methods in Python.
        * python/py-debugmethods.c: C side of the support for debug
        methods in Python.
        * python/py-objfile.c: Add 'debug_methods' attribute to
        gdb.Objfile.
        * python/python-internal.h: Add new function
        gdb.enable_debug_methods to the Python module 'gdb'.
        * python/python.c: Add new function gdb.enable_debug_methods to
        the Python module 'gdb'.
        * python/python.h: Add declarations of new functions.
        * valarith.c: Use methods defined in extension languages.
        * valops.c: Use methods defined in extension languages.
        * value.h: New signature for 'find_overload_match'.

Thanks,
Siva Chandra
