Catch exception in value_rtti_indirect_type
In the situation described in bug 17416 [1]: * "set print object" is on; * The variable object is a pointer to a struct, and it contains an invalid value (e.g. NULL, or random uninitialized value); * The variable object (struct) has a child which is also a pointer to a struct; * We try to use "-var-list-children". ... an exception thrown in value_ind can propagate too far and leave an half-built variable object, leading to a wrong state. This patch adds a TRY_CATCH to catch it and makes value_rtti_indirect_type return NULL in that case, meaning that the type of the pointed object could not be found. A test for the fix is also added. New in v2: * Added test. * Restructured "catch" code. * Added details about the bug in commit log. gdb/Changelog: * valops.c (value_rtti_indirect_type): Catch exception thrown by value_ind. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog * gdb.mi/mi-var-list-children-invalid-grandchild.c: New file. * gdb.mi/mi-var-list-children-invalid-grandchild.exp: New file.
