Consider the test-case gdb.base/async.exp. Using the executable, I run to
main, and land on a line advertised as line 26:
...
$ gdb outputs/gdb.base/async/async -ex start
Reading symbols from outputs/gdb.base/async/async...
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x4004e4: file gdb.base/async.c, line 26.
Starting program: outputs/gdb.base/async/async
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at gdb.base/async.c:26
26 y = foo ();
...
But actually, the line turns out to be line 28:
...
$ cat -n gdb.base/async.c
...
26 y = 2;
27 z = 9;
28 y = foo ();
...
This is caused by the following: the python colorizer initializes the lexer
with default options (no second argument to get_lexer_for_filename):
...
def colorize(filename, contents):
# Don't want any errors.
try:
lexer = lexers.get_lexer_for_filename(filename)
formatter = formatters.TerminalFormatter()
return highlight(contents, lexer, formatter)
...
which include option stripnl=True, which strips leading and trailing newlines.
This causes the python colorizer to strip the two leading newlines of async.c.
Fix this by initializing the lexer with stripnl=False.
Build and reg-tested on 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.
