[PATCH v2 5/7] Add early startup command file
Tom Tromey

Tue Jun 23 13:20:04 GMT 2020
This adds support for a gdb command file to be read early in startup.
Code that wants to save an early setting can register a callback to be
called to write to this file. This code is not yet used, but will be
in subsequent patches.
2020-06-22 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* main.c (captured_main_1): Call read_startup_file.
* cli/cli-setshow.h (write_startup_functions, add_startup_writer)
(read_startup_file): Declare.
(write_startup_setting_ftype): New typedef.
* cli/cli-setshow.c (STARTUP_FILE): New define.
(write_startup_functions, startup_file_read): New globals.
(write_startup_file, add_startup_writer, read_startup_file): New
functions.
