I think "set debugvarobj" has the wrong name.
It ought to be "set debug varobj", like gdb's other debug settings.
This patch makes the change.
I chose not to install deprecated aliases, since this is only a debug
setting; but if someone feels strongly about it I will add them.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.

* varobj.c (_initialize_varobj): Rename to "set debug varobj" and
"show debug varobj".

* gdb.texinfo (Debugging Output): Rename to "set debug varobj" and
"show debug varobj".
Given the following variable...
BT : Bounded := New_Bounded (Low => 1, High => 3);
... where type Bounded is defined as a simple unconstrained array:
type Bounded is array (Integer range <>) of Integer;
Creating a varobj for that variable, and immediately asking for
varobj updates, GDB says that our varobj changed types!
(gdb)
-var-create bt * bt
^done,name="bt",numchild="3",value="[3]",type="<ref> array (1 .. 3) of integer",has_more="0"
(gdb)
-var-update 1 *
^done,changelist=[{name="bt",value="[3]",in_scope="true",type_changed="true",new_type="<ref> array (1 .. 3) of integer",new_num_children="3",has_more="0"}]
The expected output for the -var-update command is, in this case:
(gdb)
-var-update 1 *
^done,changelist=[]
The problem occurs because the ada-varobj module does not handle
references, and while the references gets stripped when the varobj
gets created, it doesn't when computing varobj updates.
More specifically, when creating the varobj, varobj_create creates
a new value which is a reference to a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY. It then calls
install_new_value which calls coerce_ref with the following comment:
/* We are not interested in the address of references, and given
that in C++ a reference is not rebindable, it cannot
meaningfully change. So, get hold of the real value. */
if (value)
value = coerce_ref (value);
This leaves the varobj's type component still a ref, while
the varobj's value is now our array, without the ref. This explains
why the "value" field in the varobj indicates an array with 3 elements
"[3]" while the "type" field shows a ref to an array. Generally
speaking, most users have said that showing the ref was a useful
piece of information, so this patch is not touching this part.
Next, when the user issues the -var-update request, varobj_update
calls value_of_root to compute the varobj's new value as well as
determine whether the value's type has changed or not. What happens
in a nutshell is that it calls value_of_root_1 (which re-evaluates
the expression and returns the corresponding new value), finds that
the new value is not NULL, and thus asks whether it has mutated:
else if (varobj_value_has_mutated (var, value, value_type (value)))
This then indirectly delegates the determination to the language-specific
callback, which fails, because it does not handle references.
This patch fixes the issue by adjusting varobj_value_has_mutated to
expect references, and strip them when seen. This allows the various
language-specific implementations to remain unaware of references.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* varobj.c (varobj_value_has_mutated): If NEW_VALUE is
a reference, strip the reference layer before calling
the lang_ops value_has_mutated callback.

* gdb.ada/mi_dyn_arr: New testcase.
Hi,
"It's" should be "Its". This patch is to fix it. Committed as
obvious.

This patch does some cleanups, removing some language-related stuff.
Note that mi_cmd_var_info_expression uses varobj_language_string,
which is redundant, because we can get language name from
lang->la_natural_name.
varobj_language_string doesn't have "Ada", which looks like a bug to
me. With this patch applied, this problem doesn't exist, because the
language name is got from the same place (field la_natural_name).

Here is the patch to rename 'lang' to 'lang_ops'. Committed as obvious.

This is a follow-up series to move language stuff out of varobj.c.
This patch adds a new field la_varobj_ops in struct language_defn so
that each language has varobj-related options. Not every language
supports varobj, and the operations are identical to operations of c
languages.
'struct language_defn' is the ideal place to save all language-related
operations. After this patch, some cleanups can be done in patch 2/2,
which removes language-related stuff completely from varobj.c.
Regression tested on x86_64-linux.

Hi,
This FIXME goes into my eyes, when I am about to modify something here,
/* Name is allocated by name_of_child. */
/* FIXME: xstrdup should not be here. */
This FIXME was introduced in the python pretty-pretter patches.
Python pretty-printing [6/6]
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-05/msg00467.html
create_child_with_value is called in two paths,
1. varobj_list_children -> create_child -> create_child_with_value,
2. install_dynamic_child -> install_dynamic_child -> varobj_add_child
-> create_child_with_value
In path #1, 'name' is allocated by name_of_child, as the original
comment said, we don't have to duplicate NAME in
create_child_with_value. In path #2, 'name' is got from
PyArg_ParseTuple, and we have to duplicate NAME.
This patch removes the call to xstrdup in create_child_with_value
and call xstrudp in update_dynamic_varobj_children (path #2).

This patch introduces a new language-specific callback for varobj
