Don't replace '\' with '\\' in before_prompt_hook
In gdb/command/prompt.py:before_prompt_hook, the '\' in the new prompt is replaced with '\\', shown as below, > def before_prompt_hook(self, current): > if self.value is not '': > newprompt = gdb.prompt.substitute_prompt(self.value) > return newprompt.replace('\\', '\\\\') > else: > return None I don't see any explanations on this in comments nor email. As doc said, "set extended-prompt \w" substitute the current working directory, but it prints something different from what pwd or os.getcwdu() prints on mingw32 host. (gdb) python print os.getcwdu()^M \\build2-lucid-cs\yqi\yqi\arm-none-eabi (gdb) pwd^M Working directory \\build2-lucid-cs\yqi\yqi\arm-none-eabi (gdb) set extended-prompt \w \\\\build2-lucid-cs\\yqi\\yqi\\arm-none-eabi This makes me think whether the substitution in before_prompt_hook is necessary or not. This patch is to remove this substitution. Run gdb.python on x86_64-linux and arm-none-eabi on mingw32 host. No regressions. gdb: 2014-10-30 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * python/lib/gdb/command/prompt.py (before_prompt_hook): Don't replace '\\' with '\\\\'.
