What has changed since GDB-3.5?
|
||||
(Organized release by release)
|
||||
|
||||
*** Changes in GDB-4.2:
|
||||
|
||||
* Improved configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Only one copy of `configure' exists now, and it is not self-modifying.
|
||||
Porting BFD is simpler.
|
||||
|
||||
* Stepping improved
|
||||
|
||||
The `step' and `next' commands now only stop at the first instruction
|
||||
of a source line. This prevents the multiple stops that used to occur
|
||||
in switch statements, for-loops, etc. `Step' continues to stop if a
|
||||
function that has debugging information is called within the line.
|
||||
|
||||
* Bug fixing
|
||||
|
||||
Lots of small bugs fixed. More remain.
|
||||
|
||||
* New host supported (not target)
|
||||
|
||||
Intel 386 PC clone running Mach i386-none-mach
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
*** Changes in GDB-4.1:
|
||||
|
||||
* Multiple source language support
