MI: Allow non-raw varobj evaluation
Make the MI variable object expression evaluation, with the -var-evaluate-expression command, recursively call pretty printers, to match the output of normal expression printing. Consider the following code: struct Foo { int val; }; struct Wrapper { Foo foo; }; int main() { Wrapper w; w.foo.val = 23; } and this pretty printer file: import gdb.printing class FooPrinter: def __init__(self, val): self.val = val def to_string(self): return "Foo" + str(self.val["val"]) class WrapperPrinter: def __init__(self, val): self.val = val def to_string(self): return self.val["foo"] test_printer = gdb.printing.RegexpCollectionPrettyPrinter("test") test_printer.add_printer('Foo', '^Foo$', FooPrinter) test_printer.add_printer('Wrapper', '^Wrapper$', WrapperPrinter) gdb.printing.register_pretty_printer(None, test_printer) Setting a breakpoint at the end of the function, we call the following commands: -enable-pretty-printing ^done -var-create var_w @ w ^done,name="var_w",numchild="0",value="{val = 23}",type="Wrapper",dynamic="1",has_more="0" -var-create var_w_foo @ w.foo ^done,name="var_w_foo",numchild="0",value="Foo23",type="Foo",dynamic="1",has_more="0" -var-evaluate-expression var_w ^done,value="{val = 23}" -var-evaluate-expression var_w_foo ^done,value="Foo23" -data-evaluate-expression w ^done,value="Foo23" -data-evaluate-expression w.foo ^done,value="Foo23" So, in the -var-evaluate-expression var_w case, we print the "raw" value of w.foo, while in the -data-evaluate-expression w case, we print the pretty printed w.foo value. After this patch, all of the above print "Foo23". gdb/ChangeLog: * varobj.c (varobj_formatted_print_options): Allow recursive pretty printing if pretty printing is enabled. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.python/py-prettyprint.c (struct to_string_returns_value_inner, struct to_string_returns_value_wrapper): New. (main): Add tsrvw variable. * gdb.python/py-prettyprint.py (ToStringReturnsValueInner, ToStringReturnsValueWrapper): New classes. (register_pretty_printers): Register new pretty-printers. * gdb.python/py-prettyprint.exp (run_lang_tests): Test printing recursive pretty printer. * gdb.python/py-mi.exp: Likewise.
