From: Reuben Thomas <rrt <at> sc3d.org> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 23.2.91; Multi-window gdb uses other frames confusingly Date: Sun, 23 Jan 2011 18:28:56 +0000
While using multi-window gdb, I opened another frame, and looked at a related source file in it, though not the one that currently contained the execution point. I then switched back to the gdb frame, and advanced execution until it reached a point in the file in the buffer currently displayed in the other frame. gdb raised this frame, which happened to fill the whole screen (although the focus remained in the gdb frame). I submit that this is rather unhelpful behavior: in multi-window mode, gdb should always show the current execution point in the source window. I don’t expect the behavior to change just because I happen to have the relevant buffer open in another frame.
