Subject: bug#13303: 24.2.91; gdb under emacs broken for break commands
Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2012 23:04:21 -0500

This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgment at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

create file hello.c:
#include <stdio.h>
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
   printf ("hello world\n");

   return 0;
} /* end main */

compile it, with gcc (Debian 4.7.2-4) 4.7.2:
gcc -g -o hello hello.c

run it:
./hello

debug it:
M-x gdb
Run gdb (like this): gdb -i=mi hello

at the gdb prompt, set a breakpoint:
break hello.c:4

try to set commands:
command 1

should see a prompt, terminate by 'end'. Instead, see:
(gdb) command 1
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 1, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
p argc
end
p argc
end
(gdb)

This was terminated by Menu | Signals | EOF

On Windows 7, the behavior is slightly different; the '>' prompt is
visible, but EOF crashes gdb.
