Behaviour of default all-stop mode -- Why no one has replied ?

[suresh ds]

Thanks Daniel.
I'm still expecting answers for my other queries.
1) When I continue, gdb sends packet only to resume one (current) thread. How to make gdb send packets to resume other threads ?
Even if I 'switch' to other thread, and continue, it still keeps sending packets only to the previously set thread.

2) Through 'Thread apply' or Thread-specific breakpoints' also, I'm not able to make gdb send packets to resume threads.

How to achieve this ?


Thanks,
Suresh

This is non-stop mode.  You need a GDB that supports non-stop mode for
your processor in order to do this.

GDB 6.8 doesn't support non-stop at all.  GDB in CVS doesn't support
non-stop for MIPS yet, I believe.
