Subject: Re: [PATCH master + 11] gdb/mi: handle no condition argument case for -break-condition

The error message has changed compared to previous GDB releases, not sure if that was intentional or if it matters, the old versions said:

^error,msg="Argument required (breakpoint number)."

the new message renders as:

^error,msg="-break-condition: Missing the <number> argument"

Eclipse CDT does not use the contents of error message (because we never send a command with such an error :-) so from my perspective it is fine to change the error message.

Jonah

The former error message was coming from the CLI’s “cond” command:

  (gdb) cond
  Argument required (breakpoint number).

In my opinion this message is equivalent to the new message in terms of descriptiveness,
except for the “-break-condition” prefix.  Let’s see what Simon or another maintainer
thinks about preserving the exact same error message.

Thanks
