1994-03-02 * stabs.texinfo (Type Descriptors): Add OS9000 type descriptors c,Jim Kingdon2-3/+14
i, and b.
1994-02-23 * stabs.texinfo: Document N_RBRAC as function relative for COFF asJim Kingdon2-61/+100
well as for ELF and SOM. Unify the descriptions of ELF and SOM as "stabs in sections" rather than just saying "ELF and SOM". Also make that stuff apply to COFF.

Ghostscript.
1994-02-04 * gdb.texinfo (Continuing and Stepping): When talking about "step"Jim Kingdon2-1/+15
versus functions without line numbers, also mention stepping into them as well as "step" when you are in them. Tell the user how to deal with the situation. Add comment about "debugging information".

1993-11-24comment fix.Roland Pesch1-1/+1
1993-11-24* refcard.tex: avoid bad linebreaks even when REFEDITS=psrc.sedRoland Pesch1-48/+142
(these probably crept w/minor changes in spacing when A4 stuff updated recently); update copyright date consistently * cygref.tex: bring up to date with refcard.tex

1993-11-11 * stabs.texinfo (Stabs in ELF): Clarify how Bbss.bss work with respectJim Kingdon2-15/+36
to picking which Bbss.bss symbol to use, and (because there seems to be no good way of doing it) re-write some of the text to make it sound like Bbss.bss isn't such a great idea after all (as currently designed).
1993-11-11 * gdb.texinfo (C): In addition to saying people have to use g++ forJim Kingdon2-6/+29
good results, say they have to use stabs. Specifically say cfront doesn't work well. (Summary): Merge in information on Modula-2, Pascal, and Chill from the gdb README. Add xrefs to places where the support for the various languages is described in detail.

octal values. Clean up cross reference to type attributes. (String Field): Say that GDB 4.11 supports size attribute.
1993-11-01Change the stream argument to _filtered to GDB_FILE *.Thomas Lord2-1/+3
Change all references to stdout/stderr to gdb_stdout/gdb_stderr. Replace all calls to stdio output functions with calls to corresponding _unfiltered functions (`fprintf_unfiltered') Replaced calls to fopen for output to gdb_fopen. Added sufficient goo to utils.c and defs.h to make the above work. The net effect is that stdio output functions are only directly used in utils.c. Elsewhere, the _unfiltered and _filtered functions and GDB_FILE type are used. In the near future, GDB_FILE will stop being equivalant to FILE. The semantics of some commands has changed in a very subtle way: called in the right context, they may cause new occurences of prompt_for_continue() behavior. The testsuite doesn't notice anything like this, though. Please respect this change by not reintroducing stdio output dependencies in the main body of gdb code. All output from commands should go to a GDB_FILE. Target-specific code can still use stdio directly to communicate with targets.
1993-10-31 * remote.texi (VxWorks Remote): Clarify that rebuilding VxWorks kernelJim Kingdon2-14/+17
