Nice.
This would make things easier for people using gdb-5.3.
I've sent a PR for this to GDB, I think it was fix by Keith Seitz
But can not confirm.
This is partly handle in the head by not using the -data-list-register-xxxx commands
just too flaky. The registers are now GDB varobj:
-var-create - * $pc
But part of the patch still is valid for the head, thanks.
Currently I do not have an Eclipse/CDT/1.0.1 setup to apply the patch
Did you expect this to be apply in that branch or it was more a FYI ?
