Output the Ada task name in more messages.
With this patch, we e.g. get: [Switching to task 2 "task_list(1)"] [Current task is 2 "task_list(1)"] instead of [Switching to task 2] [Current task is 2] The logic to produce the taskno optionally followed by the task name has been factorized in the task_to_str function. Task names are output between double quotes in the new messages, similarly to what GDB does for thread names. However, no quotes are put around task names in 'info tasks' Name column. This was discussed with Tom, that preferred no quotes there, while I was more in favour of visual consistency. I discussed with a few more users, which led to (exactly) 50% preferring quotes and 50% preferring no quotes :). To arrive to the decision to remove the quotes, the following "killing args" were used: * To have quotes or to not have quotes, that is the question; yes but not *THE* question :). * If there is not a clear majority that prefers quotes, better to not disturb the existing user basis for a (somewhat) irrelevant aspect. * The opinion of the reviewer has more weight. So, compared to the previous version, this version remotes the quotes in 'info tasks'. It improves the alignement of 'info tasks' output. With this patch, we get: (gdb) info task ID TID P-ID Pri State Name * 1 555555759030 48 Runnable main_task 2 555555759e30 1 48 Selective Wait mit (gdb) instead of (gdb) info task ID TID P-ID Pri State Name * 1 555555759030 48 Runnable main_task 2 555555759e30 1 48 Selective Wait mit (gdb) (e.g. the first one properly shows parent and priority under the correct header). This is version 4 of the 'task name' patch. Compared to version 3, the changes are: output task names between quotes but not in 'info tasks' gdb/ChangeLog 2019-09-12 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * NEWS: Announce that Ada task names are now shown at more places, and between quotes (except in info task output). * gdb/ada-tasks.c (task_to_str): New function. (display_current_task_id): Call task_to_str. (task_command_1): Likewise. (print_ada_task_info): In non-mi mode, Properly align headers and data when task-id length is > 9 (9 is the default for a 32 bits CORE_ADDR). gdb/doc/ChangeLog 2019-09-12 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.texinfo (Ada Tasks): Tell the task name is printed, update examples. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2019-09-12 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.ada/rdv_wait.exp: Update to new task names. * gdb.base/task_switch_in_core.exp: Likewise. * gdb.base/info_sources_base.c: Likewise.
