PR cli/21688: Fix multi-line/inline command differentiation
This bug is a regression caused by the following commit: 604c4576fdcfc4e7c28f569b3748a1b6b4e0dbd4 is the first bad commit commit 604c4576fdcfc4e7c28f569b3748a1b6b4e0dbd4 Author: Jerome Guitton <guitton@adacore.com> Date: Tue Jan 10 15:15:53 2017 +0100 The problem happens because, on cli/cli-script.c:process_next_line, GDB is not using the command line string to identify which command to run, but it instead using the 'struct cmd_list_element *' that is obtained by using the mentioned string. The problem with that is that the 'struct cmd_list_element *' doesn't have any information on whether the command issued by the user is a multi-line or inline one. A multi-line command is a command that will necessarily be composed of more than 1 line. For example: (gdb) if 1 >python >print ('hello') >end >end As can be seen in the example above, the 'python' command actually "opens" a new command line (represented by the change in the indentation) that will then be used to enter Python code. OTOH, an inline command is a command that is "self-contained" in a single line, for example: (gdb) if 1 >python print ('hello') >end This Python command is a one-liner, and therefore there is no other Python code that can be entered for this same block. There is also no change in the indentation. So, the fix is somewhat simple: we have to revert the change and use the full command line string passed to process_next_line in order to identify whether we're dealing with a multi-line or an inline command. This commit does just that. As can be seen, this regression also affects other languages, like guile or the compile framework. To make things clearer, I decided to create a new helper function responsible for identifying a non-inline command. Testcase is attached. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-06-30 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com> PR cli/21688 * cli/cli-script.c (command_name_equals_not_inline): New function.
