Today I re-learned that resolve_dynamic_type can return a type for
which is_dynamic_type returns true. This can happen for an array
whose elements have dynamic type -- the array is reported as dynamic,
but resolving the elements would be incorrect, because each element
might have a different type after resolution.
You can see the special case in resolve_dynamic_array_or_string:
if (ary_dim != NULL && ary_dim->code () == TYPE_CODE_ARRAY)
...
else
...
I looked into having the TYPE_CODE_ARRAY case in
is_dynamic_type_internal follow this same logic, but that breaks down
on the gdb.fortran/dynamic-ptype-whatis.exp test case. In particular
this code in fortran_undetermined::evaluate:
value *callee = std::get<0> (m_storage)->evaluate (nullptr, exp, noside);
if (noside == EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS
&& is_dynamic_type (value_type (callee)))
callee = std::get<0> (m_storage)->evaluate (nullptr, exp, EVAL_NORMAL);
... relies on is_dynamic_type returning true for such an array.
I wasn't really sure of the best way to fix this, so in the meantime I
wrote this patch, which documents the oddity so that I might have a
chance of remembering this in the future.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
