Make INTERP_TUI's default ui_out the INTERP_CONSOLE ui_out
Commit Message
Hi,
When calling the bt command using a user-defined command while logging with
redirect (escaping '#' using '\' for git commit message convenience):
...
$ gdb -q a.out
Reading symbols from a.out...
(gdb) define mybt
Type commands for definition of "mybt".
End with a line saying just "end".
>bt
>end
(gdb) set logging redirect on
(gdb) set logging on
Redirecting output to gdb.txt.
Copying debug output to gdb.txt.
(gdb) start
(gdb) mybt
\#0 main () at hello.c:9
...
we get the bt output (the '#0 main () at hello.c:9' above) in the gdb
output rather than in the log file gdb.txt:
...
$ cat gdb.txt
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x40053b: file hello.c, line 9.
Starting program: /data/gdb_versions/devel/a.out
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at hello.c:9
9 printf ("hello\n");
...
If we do the same using "bt" instead of "mybt", the output does end up in the
log file, and not in the gdb output, as expected.
Also, if we build gdb with --disable-tui, the problem disappears.
The problem is caused by:
- the fact that INTERP_TUI maintains two ui_outs, one for TUI mode disabled
(called the default ui_out) and one for TUI mode enabled, combined with
- the fact that the user-defined commands are interpreted by INTERP_CONSOLE,
which has its own ui_out.
With --disable-tui, the main interpreter is INTERP_CONSOLE, so the logging
redirect is setup for INTERP_CONSOLE's ui_out, and the redirect has effect
when interpreting the mybt command.
With --enable-tui, the main interpreter is INTERP_TUI, so the logging
redirect is setup for INTERP_TUI's default ui_out, and the redirect has no
effect when interpreting the mybt command using INTERP_CONSOLE.
Fix this by making INTERP_TUI's default ui_out the console ui_out.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
OK for trunk?
Thanks,
- Tom

With this patch applied I see the fixed behaviour you describe at the
CLI, however, if I do:
(gdb) define mybt
bt
end
(gdb) start
(gdb) set logging redirect on
(gdb) tui enable
(gdb) set logging on
(gdb) mybt
The I see output appear on both the console and in the log file. If I
replace mybt with bt then I see the output only go to the log file.
Could this be addressed as part of this patch?

I can't reproduce this. Are you sure you removed the gdb.txt file before
starting gdb?

You're absolutely right, nothing goes to the log for `mybt`, this was
a silly mistake on my side. Apologies. However...
With tui enabled and logging on and redirect on, the 'bt' __does__
write to the log, while 'mybt' writes to the screen. This is the same
bug you're fixing for non-tui mode, correct? Any solution should
ideally address both cases, or at least be accompanied with an
explanation for why these problems are distinct and should be solved
separately.

Andrew
