--- Comment #10 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The releases/gcc-9 branch has been updated by Jonathan Wakely <r...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:b1dba8a228e7d9497d2ddbd012b4343f99b87823 commit r9-9168-gb1dba8a228e7d9497d2ddbd012b4343f99b87823 Author: Jonathan Wakely <jwak...@redhat.com> Date: Fri Nov 29 14:47:03 2019 +0000 libstdc++: improve how pretty printers find node types (PR 91997) This fixes two related problems. The iterators for node-based containers use nested typedefs such as std::list<T>::iterator::_Node to denote their node types. As reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1053438 those typedefs are not always present in the debug info. That means the pretty printers cannot find them using gdb.lookup_type (via the find_type helper). Instead of looking up the nested typedefs this patch makes the printers look up the actual class templates directly. A related problem (and the original topic of PR 91997) is that GDB fails to find types via gdb.lookup_type when printing a backtrace from a non-C++ functiion: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25234 That is also solved by not looking up the nested typedef. PR libstdc++/91997 * python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py (find_type): Fail more gracefully if we run out of base classes to look at. (llokup_templ_spec, lookup_node_type): New utilities to find node types for node-based containers. (StdListPrinter.children, NodeIteratorPrinter.__init__) (NodeIteratorPrinter.to_string, StdSlistPrinter.children) (StdSlistIteratorPrinter.to_string, StdRbtreeIteratorPrinter.__init__) (StdMapPrinter.children, StdSetPrinter.children) (StdForwardListPrinter.children): Use lookup_node_type instead of find_type. (StdListIteratorPrinter.__init__, StdFwdListIteratorPrinter.__init__): Pass name of node type to NodeIteratorPrinter constructor. (Tr1HashtableIterator.__init__): Rename argument. (StdHashtableIterator.__init__): Likewise. Use lookup_templ_spec instead of find_type. * testsuite/libstdc++-prettyprinters/59161.cc: Remove workaround for _Node typedef not being present in debuginfo. * testsuite/libstdc++-prettyprinters/91997.cc: New test.
