It's long bothered me that setting a Python parameter from the CLI will print the "set" help text by default. I think usually "set" commands should be silent. And, while you can modify this behavior a bit by providing a "get_set_string" method, if this method returns an empty string, a blank line will be printed. This patch removes the "help" behavior and changes the get_set_string behavior to avoid printing a blank line. The code has a comment about preserving API behavior, but I don't think this is truly important; and in any case the workaround -- implementing get_set_string -- is trivial. Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 26. 2018-04-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * NEWS: Mention new "set" behavior. * python/py-param.c (get_set_value): Don't print an empty string. Don't call get_doc_string. gdb/doc/ChangeLog 2018-04-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python.texi (Parameters In Python): Update get_set_string documentation. |
