Description
IBM Bug Proxy
2008-09-22 21:30:43 UTC
The features described in the business case are present in the Archer code which will ship in Fedora 11, so no patch to be attached here too. IBM is signed up to test and provide feedback. *** Bug 463318 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 463834 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Decimal Floating Point support shipped in GDB version 6.8, and is also present in the Archer code which will be used in Fedora 11. Am I right in my assuption that there's no need to post a patch here? This enhancement request was evaluated by the full Red Hat Enterprise Linux team for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux major release. As a result of this evaluation, Red Hat has tentatively approved inclusion of this feature in the next Red Hat Enterprise Linux major release. While it is a goal to include this enhancement in the next major release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the enhancement is not yet committed for inclusion in the next major release pending the next phase of actual code integration and successful Red Hat and partner testing.

Am I right in my assuption > that there's no need to post a patch here? Decimal floating point has been verified as working in: Bug 463834 Comment 4 I opened a specific feature for python because I thought it could give better coverage if we need something for python which for some reason doesn't get into the next gdb version (even though we are striving to get it all upstream). If you think this is not necessary (since 463317 mentions python as well), this can be duped. Python scripting support is present in the Archer code going into Fedora 11, so I believe I don't need to post patches here... ------- Comment From bauerman.com 2010-05-07 14:48 EDT------- Hi, Verified the feature by checking that RHEL6 includes GDB 7.1. ------- Comment From bauerman.com 2010-05-07 14:45 EDT------- Just verified the feature by checking that RHEL6 contains GDB version 7.1, which includes the DFP support. Red Hat Enterprise Linux Beta 2 is now available and should resolve the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. ------- Comment From bauerman.com 2010-05-07 14:50 EDT------- Verified the feature by checking that RHEL6 includes GDB 7.1, which has Python scripting support, plus the archer patch, which adds additional Python hooks. |
