Yao Qi 389b98f7d8 [testsuite] Set target-charset to ascii
Hi,
We find gdb.base/printcmds.exp fails a lot on windows host, like this,

 p ctable1[163]
 $204 = 163 '£'
 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p ctable1[163]

however, on linux host,

 p ctable1[163]
 $205 = 163 '\243'
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p ctable1[163]

The printing related code is in valprint.c:print_wchar,

  if (gdb_iswprint (w) && (!need_escape || (!gdb_iswdigit (w)
					    && w != LCST ('8')
					    && w != LCST ('9'))))
    {
      gdb_wchar_t wchar = w;

      if (w == gdb_btowc (quoter) || w == LCST ('\\'))
	obstack_grow_wstr (output, LCST ("\\"));
      obstack_grow (output, &wchar, sizeof (gdb_wchar_t));
    }
  else
   {
      // print W in hex or octal digits
   }

When I debug gdb on different hosts, I find
on windows host, gdb_iswprint (iswprint) returns true if 'w' is 163.
However, on linux host, iswprint returns false if 'w' is 163.  Looks
this difference is caused by the charset.  On Linux host,
the target-charset is ANSI_X3.4-1968, while on windows host, the
target-charset is CP1252.

We can see how target-charset affects the output.  On linux host,

 (gdb) set target-charset ASCII
 (gdb) p ctable1[163]
 $1 = 163 '\243'
 (gdb) set target-charset CP1252
 (gdb) p ctable1[163]
 $2 = 163 '£'

we can print the pound sign too, and it shows target-charset does
affect the output.

This patch is to set target-charset temporarily to ASCII for some
charset-sensitive tests.  Tested on arm-none-eabi and
powerpc-linux-gnu on mingw32 host.  More than one hundred fails are
fixed.

2014-04-17  Yao Qi  <yao@codesourcery.com>

	* lib/gdb.exp (with_target_charset): New proc.
	* gdb.base/printcmds.exp (test_print_all_chars): Wrap tests with
	with_target_charset.
	(test_print_strings): Likewise.
	(test_repeat_bytes): Likewise.
	* gdb.base/setvar.exp: Set target-charset to ASCII temporarily
	for some tests.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
