Re: [commit] Let {TM,XM,NM}_FILE specify a path


Date: Thu, 02 Sep 2004 18:12:22 -0400
From: Andrew Cagney <cagney@gnu.org>

Many of the still existing TM files (the others are done for consistency) are just acting as an indirect include of another file. For instance, tm-nbsd.h #includes "solib.h". This patch tweaks configure.in so that a TM_FILE can explicitly specify any file (instead of having to pull it in via an #include) - that lets us eliminate both the indirection and the unnecessary config file.


Perhaps we should rename TM_FILE to something like TM_INCLUDE, then.

If you prefer, I can rename it to DEPRECATED_TM_INCLUDE when committing my pending deprecation patch.


Btw, did we decide upon all these recent changes against *_FILE
thingies?

Long long ago we decided that GDB would be strictly multi-arch, and hence that all tm-*.h files (and TM_FILE hackery) should be deleted. This deletes another 13 of those files.


If you prefer I can delete the tm-*.h files and TM_FILE configury outright.

Andrew
