I'm checking this in as obvious. I was looking at instances of "alloc.*sizeof" and noticed a couple where the types in question are incorrect. In gdbtypes, the code allocates sizeof(int) to represent a struct rank. In mi-cmds, the code uses "struct mi_cmd **" -- one "*" too many. In both cases the problems are latent because in practice the sizes are the same as the sizes of the correct types. Still, it's better to be correct. I think gdb would be improved by a wholesale change from explicit sizeofs to using the libiberty.h allocation macros. In most cases they are both shorter and have better type safety. However, the resulting patch is rather large. Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20. 2014-05-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> * gdbtypes.c (rank_function): Use XNEWVEC. * mi/mi-cmds.c (build_table): Use XCNEWVEC.
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.
