From 50b34a18edaf0f2112d03f62f2816b920203ac07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Tromey Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:29:28 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix for PR gdb/15995 This patch fixes PR gdb/15995. The bug here is that gdb's printf command does not flush the output stream. This makes a printf that is not newline-terminated interleave incorrectly with other forms of output, such as that generated via a call to an external program using "shell". I note that the "output" command already does this flushing. The fix is to call gdb_flush in printf_command. Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18. New test case included.
