[FYI,3/6,Ada] Resolve dynamic type before trying to print it.
Commit Message
This is another required step towards trying to print the value of
an array of variant records. For instance:
A1 : Array_Type := (1 => (I => 0, S => <>),
2 => (I => 1, S => "A"),
3 => (I => 2, S => "AB"));
... where Array_Type is an array of records whose size is variable:
subtype Small_Type is Integer range 0 .. 10;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := 0) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
What happens is that the ada-valprint modules gets passed an array
whose element type is not resolved yet (since each element of the
array needs to be resolved separately). the module then recurses,
and eventually gets called with the first element of the array.
But because the element hasn't been resolved yet, we end up having
trouble printing its value soon after.
This patch fixes the issue by calling resolve_dynamic_type before
trying to print it.
With this patch, GDB is finally able to print the complete value
for variable "A1":
(gdb) p a1
$1 = ((i => 0, s => ""), (i => 1, s => "A"), (i => 2, s => "AB"))
