[PATCH] Fix Ada "ptype" bug with array types

Tom Tromey tromey@adacore.com
Wed Mar 13 21:42:00 GMT 2019


Using ptype on an array type in Ada can sometimes show an incorrect
high bound.  This happens because ada_evaluate_subexp will create an
array with an incorrect upper bound in the EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS
case.

This patch fixes the problem by arranging to always create such an
array with valid bounds.

Tested on x86-64 Fedora 29.
