           Summary: var-create crashes if pretty-printed std::string
                    reference is not yet initialized
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: mi
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: oliver.gerlich@gmx.de


Created attachment 5667
  --> http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=5667
example application which triggers the bug

If pretty-printing (with libstdcxx.v6.printers) is enabled, then using
-var-create on a std::string reference which has not yet been initialized and
where the _M_p pointer points to invalid address leads to a crash.

Steps to reproduce:
- compile the attached test-string-basename.cpp program:
  $ g++ -o test-string-basename test-string-basename.cpp -Wall -W -Wextra -g3
-O0
- pipe the MI commands attached further below (test-string-basename-mi.txt)
into gdb:
  $ gdb --interpreter=mi2 < test-string-basename-mi.txt
- the test-string-basename program will crash; when gdb tries to do -var-create
for "theStringRef" variable, gdb itself will crash.

This happens with latest CVS HEAD (7.3.50.20110413-cvs) but does not happen
with gdb 7.0!

Backtrace from gdb:

Core was generated by `gdb7 --interpreter=mi'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
