[Ada] print null array pointer as `0x0' rather than `(null)'
Trying to print a variable defined as an access to an unconstrained array: type String_Access is access String; S1 : String_Access; If that variable is null, then GDB prints its value in an odd way: (gdb) print S1 $1 = (string_bug.string_access) (null) ^^^^^^ This patch changes the debugger behavior to print the pointer using the same output we'd use for any null pointer: (gdb) print S1 $1 = (string_bug.string_access) 0x0 It also adds an assert, helping us verify an assumption. gdb/ChangeLog: * ada-valprint.c (ada_val_print_1): Print null array pointers as `0x0' rather than `(null)'. Add assertion. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.ada/arrayptr/foo.adb: Add new local variable Null_String. * gdb.ada/arrayptr.exp: Add test printing that new variable.
