gdb: introduce "set index-cache enabled", deprecate "set index-cache on/off"
The "set index-cache" command is used at the same time as a prefix command (prefix for "set index-cache directory", for example), and a boolean setting for turning the index-cache on and off. Even though I did introduce that, I now don't think it's a good idea to do something non-standard like this. First, there's no dedicated CLI command to show whether the index-cache is enabled, so it has to be custom output in the "show index-cache handler". Also, it means there's no good way a MI frontend can find out if the index-cache is enabled. "-gdb-show index-cache" doesn't show it in the MI output record: (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-gdb-show index-cache" ~"\n" ~"The index cache is currently disabled.\n" ^done,showlist={option={name="directory",value="/home/simark/.cache/gdb"}} Fix this by introducing "set/show index-cache enabled on/off", regular boolean setting commands. Keep commands "set index-cache on" and "set index-cache off" as deprecated aliases of "set index-cache enabled", with respectively the default arguments "on" and "off". Update tests using "set index-cache on/off" to use the new command. Update the regexps in gdb.base/maint.exp to figure out whether the index-cache is enabled or not. Update the doc to mention the new commands. Change-Id: I7d5aaaf7fd22bf47bd03e0023ef4fbb4023b37b3
