inadvertent language switch during breakpoint_re_set_one
Trying to insert a breakpoint using *FUNC'address with an Ada program and then running the program until reaching that breakpoint currently yields the following behavior: (gdb) break *a'address Breakpoint 1 at 0x40240c: file a.adb, line 1. (gdb) run [1] + 27222 suspended (tty output) /[...]/gdb -q simple_main Unsuspending GDB then shows it was suspended trying to report the following error: Starting program: /home/takamaka.a/brobecke/ex/simple/a Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Unmatched single quote. Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Unmatched single quote. Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Unmatched single quote. [Inferior 1 (process 32470) exited normally] The "a'address" is Ada speak for function A's address ("A" by itself means the result of calling A with no arguments). The transcript above shows that we're having problems trying to parse the breakpoint location while re-setting it. As a result, we also fail to stop at the breakpoint. Normally, breakpoint locations are evaluated with the current_language being set to the language of the breakpoint. But, unfortunately for us, what happened in this case is that parse_exp_in_context_1 calls get_selected_block which eventually leads to a call to select_frame because the current_frame hadn't been set yet. select_frame then finds that our language_mode is auto, and therefore changes the current_language to match the language of the frame we just selected. In our case, the language chosen was 'c', which of course is not able to parse an Ada expression, hence the error. This patch prevents this by forcing the language_mode to manual before we call breakpoint_re_set_one. gdb/ChangeLog: * breakpoint.c (breakpoint_re_set): Temporarily force language_mode to language_mode_manual while calling breakpoint_re_set_one. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.ada/bp_fun_addr: New testcase. Tested on x86_64-linux.
