Hi there,
I need to know (in advance) whether the target supports async
mode or not.
I know that -list-target-features can be used for that, but
not sure when and how to use -list-target-features.
The documentation says:
"Whenever a target can change, due to commands such as -target-select,
-target-attach or -exec-run, the list of target features may change,
and the frontend should obtain it again."
However, once I issue `-exec-run` using a target with no async mode
support, I will not get the result of -list-target-feature before
debugee stops.
Another problem is that user may enter CLI command manually. In case,
how do I find out that target may have changed and I should check for
features?
Could you give me any advice on how and when to correctly check for
target features?
Thanks a lot!
Jan
