Subject: [Bug python/12615] New: Interrupt a running script
Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 13:55:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-12615-4717@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12615
Summary: Interrupt a running script
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: python
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: andre.poenitz@nokia.com
Currently there seems to be no way to interrupt a running python script in gdb.
With the adoption of user defined pretty printers a gdb frontend cannot protect
itself from a "rogue" pretty printer that does the equivalent of "while True:
pass", or simply takes a very long time to evaluate.
It would be nice if there was a supported way to interrupt a running script,
or to set a maximal running time for a script in advance.
