Subject: set verbose foo on?
Date: Tue, 03 May 2011 01:52:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110503015145.48E3E2461A9@ruffy.mtv.corp.google.com> (raw)
Hi.
I've found myself from time to time wanting to be able to control
gdb's verbosity on some user-related subject, but not wanting to use
"set verbose on" because it'll just turn on a lot of other crap that
I don't want to force on the user.
"set verbose on" has a really low S/N ratio for users
who turn it on to solve one particular problem, and I think we
need to fix that.
Any resistance to having finer-grained control on "verbosity" ?
Extending "set verbose" to include "set verbose foo on" "works for me".
For compatibility "set verbose on" can still be a global flag
affecting all verbosity.
