[Bug mi/11079] New: -var-set-update-range not respected when there is a pretty printer

[fuscated at gmail dot com]

If I have a vector<int> object and set a breakpoint on the line:

std::vector<int> a;

Then the state for the vector is undefined and if I issue -var-list-children for
the vector's variable, gdb enters almost infinite loop.
In order to fix this problem I tried to issue -var-set-update-range var1 0 10,
but that command is ignored.

This is actually by design.
-var-set-update-range only affects calls to -var-update.
For -var-list-children, you must pass the range explicitly.
If I change your script to use "-var-list-children 2 var1 0 10"
then it works fine
