The motivation for this change is an upcoming Python disassembler API
that I would like to add. As part of that change I need to create a
new disassembler like class that contains a disassemble_info and a
gdbarch. The management of these two objects is identical to how we
manage these objects within gdb_disassembler, so it might be tempting
for my new class to inherit from gdb_disassembler.
The problem however, is that gdb_disassembler has a tight connection
between its constructor, and its print_insn method. In the
constructor the ui_file* that is passed in is replaced with a member
variable string_file*, and then in print_insn, the contents of the
member variable string_file are printed to the original ui_file*.
What this means is that the gdb_disassembler class has a tight
coupling between its constructor and print_insn; the class just isn't
intended to be used in a situation where print_insn is not going to be
called, which is how my (upcoming) sub-class would need to operate.
My solution then, is to separate out the management of the
disassemble_info and gdbarch into a new gdb_disassemble_info class,
and make this class a parent of gdb_disassembler.
In arm-tdep.c and mips-tdep.c, where we used to cast the
disassemble_info->application_data to a gdb_disassembler, we can now
cast to a gdb_disassemble_info as we only need to access the gdbarch
information.
Now, my new Python disassembler sub-class will still want to print
things to an output stream, and so we will want access to the
dis_asm_fprintf functionality for printing.
However, rather than move this printing code into the
gdb_disassemble_info base class, I have added yet another level of
hierarchy, a gdb_printing_disassembler, thus the class structure is
now:
struct gdb_disassemble_info {};
struct gdb_printing_disassembler : public gdb_disassemble_info {};
struct gdb_disassembler : public gdb_printing_disassembler {};
In a later commit my new Python disassembler will inherit from
gdb_printing_disassembler.
The reason for adding the additional layer to the class hierarchy is
that in yet another commit I intend to rewrite the function
gdb_buffered_insn_length, and to do this I will be creating yet more
disassembler like classes, however, these will not print anything,
thus I will add a gdb_non_printing_disassembler class that also
inherits from gdb_disassemble_info. Knowing that that change is
coming, I've gone with the above class hierarchy now.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

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.
