Re: [dsdp-dd-dev] 'Not enough frames in stack' MI error when 'ThreadsUpdate Policy' is set to 'Manual'.
I honestly don't remember why two frames are retrieved.  Maybe Toni, who also worked on this code will know better.  I filed bug 261858 for it.

Cheers,

Hi,
 
I am able to reproduce this one very easily, not event using Threads Update Policy.
If you launch a simple program and simply press the restart button, you will get the same error.
 
It seems that StackFramesVMNode.buildDeltaForSuspendedEvent() always asks for two frames.
If we happen to already have one frame in the cache, then only the second frame is requested.
However, GDB does not have a second frame and the error is printed.
 
So, it seems the error is harmless, but I wonder why we always request two frames, when there
could only be one available?

Subject: [dsdp-dd-dev] 'Not enough frames in stack' MI error when 'ThreadsUpdate Policy' is set to 'Manual'.


Hi All,

Environment:
DSF from:  /cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf
            /cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf-gdb
CDT from: /cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/all
Cygwin gdb: GNU gdb 6.8.0.20080328-cvs

Actions I perform:
1. Set line breakpoint in simple C program in file 'test1.c' (attached) on instruction 'int j = 0;'  

2. Start debugger when 'Threads Update Policy' is set to 'Manual'.
3. Breakpoint is reaced but this face isn't indicated in GUI ('Manual' mode).
4. Do manual refresh and get to upper frame of suspended 'main'thread.
6. Invoke 'Step Over' command.

Problem:
mi_cmd_stack_list_frames: Not enough frames in stack.

MI commands trace is attached (file 'Not_enough_frames_in_stack.mi.trace.txt'):


Thanks!
 
Sincerely,
Dmitri Pikus
