[Ada] avoid error message pollution with uninitialized tagged variable
Consider the following function... 3 procedure Foo is 4 I : Integer := Ident (10); 5 Obj : Base; 6 begin 7 Obj.X := I; 8 Do_Nothing (Obj.X'Address); 9 end Foo; ... where type "Base" is defined as a plain tagged record. If the user stops execution before "Obj" gets initialized (for example, by inserting a breakpoint "on" the function - or in other words, by inserting a breakpoint using the function name as the location), one might get the following of output if you try printing the value of obj: (gdb) p obj object size is larger than varsize-limit object size is larger than varsize-limit object size is larger than varsize-limit $1 = object size is larger than varsize-limit (x => 4204154) Same thing with "info locals": (gdb) info locals i = 0 obj = object size is larger than varsize-limit (x => 4204154) We have also seen different error messages such as "Cannot read memory at 0x...". The error happens because we are trying to read the dispatch table of a tagged type variable before it gets initialized. So the errors might legitimately occur, and are supposed to be be contained. However, the way things are written in ada-lang.c:ada_tag_name, although the exception is in fact contained, the error message still gets to be printed out. This patch prevents this from happening by eliminating the use of catch_errors, and using a TRY_CATCH block instead. Doing this removed the need to use functions specifically fitted for catch_errors, and thus some other simplifications could me made. In the end, the code got reorganized a bit to better show the logic behind it, as well as the common patterns. gdb/ChangeLog: * ada-lang.c (struct tag_args): Delete. (ada_get_tsd_type): Function body moved up in source file. (ada_tag_name_1, ada_tag_name_2): Delete. (ada_get_tsd_from_tag): New function. (ada_tag_name_from_tsd): New function. (ada_tag_name): Use a TRY_CATCH block instead of catch_errors to determine the tag name. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.ada/tagged_not_init: New testcase.
