A new header is introduced to declare the pager class. The implementation remains in utils.c for the time being, because there are some static globals there that must be used by this code. (This could be cleaned up at some future date.) I went through all the text output in gdb to ensure that this change should be ok. There are a few cases: * Any existing call to printf_unfiltered is required to be avoid the pager. This is ensured directly in the implementation. * All remaining calls to the f*_unfiltered functions -- the ones that take an explicit ui_file -- either send to an unfiltered stream (e.g., gdb_stderr), which is obviously ok; or conditionally send to gdb_stdout I investigated all such calls by searching for: grep -e '\bf[a-z0-9_]*_unfiltered' *.[chyl] */*.[ch] | grep -v gdb_stdlog | grep -v gdb_stderr This yields a number of candidates to check. * The breakpoint _print_recreate family, and save_trace_state_variables. These are used for "save" commands and so are fine. * Things printing to a temporary stream. Obviously ok. * Disassembly selftests. * print_gdb_help - this is non-obvious, but ok because paging isn't yet enabled at this point during startup. * serial.c - doens't use gdb_stdout * The code in compile/. This is all printing to a file. * DWARF DIE dumping - doesn't reference gdb_stdout. * Calls to the _filtered form -- these are all clearly ok, because if they are using gdb_stdout, then filtering will still apply; and if not, then filtering never applied and still will not. Therefore, at this point, there is no longer any distinction between all the other _filtered and _unfiltered calls, and they can be unified. In this patch, take special note of the vfprintf_maybe_filtered and ui_file::vprintf change. This is one instance of the above idea, erasing the distinction between filtered and unfiltered -- in this part of the change, the "unfiltered_output" flag is never passe to cli_ui_out. Subsequent patches will go much further in this direction. Also note the can_emit_style_escape changes in ui-file.c. Checking against gdb_stdout or gdb_stderr was always a bit of a hack; and now it is no longer needed, because this is decision can be more fully delegated to the particular ui_file implementation. ui_file::can_page is removed, because this patch removed the only call to it. I think this is the main part of fixing PR cli/7234. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D7234 --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
