On Darwin, we have lots of complaints being emitted when restarting
a program:
(gdb) start
`a-except.o' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.
`unwind-dw2.o' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.
`s-except.o' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.
`s-traceb.o' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.
These object files are part of the GNAT runtime, and were never available.
The warning comes from the fact that we're checking whether the .o files
in the GNAT shared runtime have changed whereas we should be checking
whether the GNAT shared library itself has changed.
This patch implements this. Although it is really only useful on a platform
such as Darwin (debug info stored in .o files), we believe that this is
the right thing to do in general. This change should be a noop for all
the other platforms in any case.
gdb/ChangeLog (from Tristan Gingold & Pedro Alves):
* symfile.c (reread_symbols): Also search for file in libraries.
Update comment.
Tested on x86_64-darwin and x86_64-linux.
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.
