What about the comment further down: /* The inferior is proceeded by the command; bomb out now. The bpstat chain has been blown away by wait_for_inferior. But since execution has stopped again, there is a new bpstat to look at, so start over. */ I should also note that due to the recursive implementation of bpstat_do_actions(), it is probably not a good idea to allow bpstat_do_action() calls to accumulate on the stack if the inferior keeps hitting breakpoints that have command lists. Also, when you request a Quit, then GDB forgets all that breakpoint command list state, and behaves differently when you continue the inferior. -- Todd Whitesel toddpw @ wrs.com
