From 7af389b892404edc76e1a60c59b354b785378fa5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Siva Chandra Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2014 06:42:50 -0700 Subject: [python] Fix gdb.Value.dynamic_type for reference values. gdb.Value.dynamic_type is supposed to work for reference and pointer values. However, the value object in the function 'valpy_get_dynamic_type' was being dereferenced using 'value_ind' irrespective of the value type being TYPE_CODE_PTR or TYPE_CODE_REF. This patch fixes that to use 'coerce_ref' for TYPE_CODE_REF values. ChangeLog: * python/py-value.c (valpy_get_dynamic_type): Use coerce_ref to dereference TYPE_CODE_REF values. testsuite/ * gdb.python/py-value.c: Improve test case. * gdb.python/py-value.exp: Add new test. --- gdb/python/py-value.c | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'gdb/python/py-value.c') diff --git a/gdb/python/py-value.c b/gdb/python/py-value.c index a118f6c..54da67a 100644 --- a/gdb/python/py-value.c +++ b/gdb/python/py-value.c @@ -309,7 +309,10 @@ valpy_get_dynamic_type (PyObject *self, void *closure) struct value *target; int was_pointer = TYPE_CODE (type) == TYPE_CODE_PTR; - target = value_ind (val); + if (was_pointer) + target = value_ind (val); + else + target = coerce_ref (val); type = value_rtti_type (target, NULL, NULL, NULL); if (type) -- cgit v1.1
