Compilers can materialize renamings of arrays (or of accesses to arrays)
in Ada into variables whose types are references to the actual array
types. Before this change, trying to use such an array renaming yielded
an error in GDB:
(gdb) print my_array(1)
cannot subscript or call a record
(gdb) print my_array_ptr(1)
cannot subscript or call something of type `(null)'
This behavior comes from bad handling for array renamings, in particular
the OP_FUNCALL expression operator handling from ada-lang.c
(ada_evaluate_subexp): in one place we turn the reference into a
pointer, but the code that follows expect the value to be an array.
This patch fixes how we handle references in call/subscript evaluation
so that we turn these references into the actual array values instead of
pointers to them.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_evaluate_subexp) <OP_FUNCALL>: When the input
value is a reference, actually dereference it in order to get
the underlying value.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/array_ptr_renaming.exp: New testcase.
* gdb.ada/array_ptr_renaming/foo.adb: New file.
* gdb.ada/array_ptr_renaming/pack.ads: New file.
Tested on x86_64-linux, no regression.
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.
