If you want to use catch_errors with a function with parameters, then
currently you have to manually write a "capture" struct wrapping the
arguments and marshall/unmarshall that.

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-09/msg00834.html proposed
adjusting catch_errors to use gdb::function_view, which would allow
passing lambdas with automatic captures.  However, it seems like using
TRY/CATCH directly instead ends up producing clearer and easier to
debug code.  This is what this commit does.

Note that removing catch_errors exposes further cleanup opportunities
around no longer having to follow catch_errors callback type, and also
removes a few cleanups.

I didn't do anything to save/restore current_uiout because I think
that should be the responsibility of the code that changes
current_uiout in the first place.

(Another approach could be to make catch_errors a variadic template
like:

  template<typename Function, typename... Args>
  int catch_errors (const char *errstring, return_mask mask,
		    Function &&func, Args... args);

and then with:

  extern void function_with_args (int, int);
  extern void function_with_no_args ();

calls to the above functions would be wrapped like this:

  catch_errors ("some error happened", RETURN_MASK_ERROR,
                function_with_args, arg1, arg2);

  catch_errors ("some error happened", RETURN_MASK_ERROR,
                function_with_no_args);

but I'm thinking that that doesn't improve much if at all either.)

From: Pedro Alves @ 2017-10-04 17:08 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: gdb-patches

This patch gets rid of catch_exceptions / catch_exceptions_with_msg.
The latter is done mostly by getting rid of the three remaining
vestigial libgdb wrapper functions, which are really pointless
nowadays.  This results in a good number of simplifications.

(I checked that Insight doesn't use those functions.)

The gdb.mi/mi-pthreads.exp change is necessary because this actually
fixes a bug, IMO -- the patch stops MI's -thread-select causing output
on the CLI stream.

I.e., before:
 -thread-select 123456789
 &"Thread ID 123456789 not known.\n"
 ^error,msg="Thread ID 123456789 not known."
 (gdb)

After:
 -thread-select 123456789
 ^error,msg="Thread ID 123456789 not known."
 (gdb)

  To: gdb-patches

Here are the patches originally posted in this thread:

  https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-09/msg00834.html

a little bit cleaned up, and now tested: a few tests needed
adjustment.

The original patches were written on top of Tromey's original
function_view-ify patch.  This time I squashed my patches with his, so
parts of these patches are Tom's too.

Tom and I noticed that Tom's yesterday patches touch the
same cleanups this series touches.  So to avoid more
duplicated/wasted effort, I went ahead and pushed this in,
after rerunning tests on GNU/Linux locally.

Thanks,
