The testcase, at some point, is trying to change the contents of a string that was defined as follow: char *str = "hello, testsuite"; The problem is that the string is constant, and str is never used to change the contents of the string in the program, so the compiler is free to allocate it in a read-only section. This is what happens on x86-windows, for instance. As a result, trying to change the contents of the string during the `python gdb.inferiors()[0].write_memory (addr, str)' results in the following error: (gdb) python gdb.inferiors()[0].write_memory (addr, str) gdb: write target memory, 5 bytes at 0x00403064 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> gdb.MemoryError: Cannot access memory at address 0x403064 Error while executing Python code. This patch prevents this from happening by declaring str as an array rather than a pointer. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.python/py-inferior.c (f2): Make str an array rather than a pointer. * gdb.python/py-inferior.exp: Adjust testcase accordingly. |

README
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.
