* gdb.texinfo, none.m4, h8.m4, gdbinv-s.m4.in: improve H8/300
	  conditionals; introduce a few generic switches that may be
	  useful for other cross-dev or dos-hosted configs.

	* gdb.texinfo: fix typo in "info reg" description
1992-08-18 01:33:09 +00:00

0d1cd01ebc * gdb.texinfo, refcard.tex: Document mult args on `info reg'.
* Makefile.in (refcard.ps, lrefcard.ps):  Add missing $(srdir).

d48da190b5 (1) add disclaimer to config section of "Installing" appendix (this is
NOT full config doc) and xref to configure.info

(2) add brief mention of --help and --prefix=DIR configure options

(3) re-enable, with new command names, old doc for commands now
reorganized into maint.  (NO new doc yet for new maint commands or for
old undoc'd dump-me; nor for "maint" itself in general.)

6c380b13e6 First attempt at doc for general uses of quotes around symbols. 1992-07-11 03:08:13 +00:00
Roland Pesch
5a2c1d8583 (1) C and C++ treated as separate languages, not one as originally doc'd
(2) [temporarily, until "maint" details avail] hide explanations of commands
moved to "maint" so we don't risk releasing doc with obsolete names:
printsyms, printmsyms, printpsyms, info all-breakpoints.

0fdc6e2717 (Finally) doc that GDB sometimes inserts quotes for you, on overloaded
symbol completion requests.

0fd24984ce Minor cleanup for better smallbook formatting w/default FSF style. 1992-06-24 01:17:24 +00:00
Roland Pesch
6a8cb0e75c (1) removed three-part table of config name components from Installing
appendix (too hard to maintain, esp w/recent versions of config.sub).
    Also corrected xref to this section accordingly.
(2) updated sample output from config.sub to match latest variation of
    that script
(3) minor editing to gnu contrib text on set/show remotedebug
1992-06-24 00:15:44 +00:00

	* gdbinv-s.m4.in: correct and expand info on cross-debugging
	H8/300 from DOS.

77b46d1331 * gdb.texinfo: Update for GDB-4.5. Move `Formatting
Documentation' ahead of `Installing GDB' to match README.
Update shared library doc, -readnow and -mapped, and directory
structure (add glob and mmalloc).  Update configure doc.

cc9bc574ec Updates to text on "info proc". 1992-04-06 23:40:23 +00:00
Roland Pesch
95d5ceb921 0) Update descriptions of symbol-file, file, add-symbol-file cmds for use
of *options* "-readnow" and "-mapped".

1) Change title/subtitle to come closer to text used by FSF when they
printed this thing (but still avoid silliness of having word "manual" in
the title).

2) First few minor corrections from most recent Chassell pass.

14d01801cc (1) GDB 4.5: another Grossman/Gilmore co-production!
(2) Add fnf to GDB credits for SVr4 stuff.  (Need to sift ChangeLog again for
    more recent credits).
(3) document "mapped", "readnow" keywords (with file or symbol-file commands;
    for now no mention of add-symbol-file in this context), -m and -mapped
    cmd-line options, and associated explanations.

d24e092258 (1) Document printmsyms; slight clarifications to description of printsyms,
printpsyms.
(2) Fix errors found by makeinfo.
(3) Initial docn for "info proc" and its subcommands.  Should probably
    be expanded somewhat after implementation complete.

6ca72cc661 .Sanitize: reflect removal of gdb-all.texi from repository
lucid.m4: config for Lucid/NCR (like "all.m4" but also turns on _LUCID__)

none.m4: turn _LUCID__ off by default

gdb.texinfo:
1) Use bold rather than italic for user input in intro, to avoid discord
   with meta-variable convention throughout manual (jim@wrs.com suggestion).
2) Some mumbling about using GDB under Energize/Cadillac.
   (conditionalized on _LUCID__, not included yet in general-doc config)
3) more remarks about debugging optimized code, incl vanishing unused vars
   (rms/gnu/net suggestion).
4) @emph replaces @i in a few spots (emphasis should affect info file as
   well as printed manual).
5) "memory tracing", "breakpoint on variable modification" index entries
   added, pointing to watchpoints (gnu suggestion).
6) Less passive, more index entries, in breakpoint-number description
7) doc new convenience var $bpnum (due to grossman?)
8) Update "info breakpoints" to describe new Grossman format; note now
   synonymous with "info watchpoints".
9) Describe negative (GDB internal) breakpoints and new "info all-breakpoints"
10) Slight change to description of colon-colon GDB expression notation,
   describing function::var as well as file::var and noting var is static
   (lmb question, gnu suggestion)
11) Doc Per's new &(&foo) for debugging C++
12) Rephrase paragraph in configure appendix to avoid overfull box
    (in *large* format!)
13) Additional warning re VPATH feature required for --srcdir= config.
    (gnu suggestion)

small format)
* typo in index entry type fixed

a6d0b6d30f (1) At Bob Chassell's request, remove leading comments that used to
survive M4 filtering but still tell people the original source was
M4'd;

(2) Also for B.C., include one more emphasis font in @colophon at end;

(3) Thanks to J Gilmore, strengthen wording about unsupported
combinations of host-manufacturer-OS in config Appendix.
