Re: Progress indicator on loading


The MI -target-download already does
report progress, based on write size.

My colleagues want to have similar feature for the "load" command. If it's reasonable to implement it could be an extra option to this command.

Hi GDB developers,

One of my colleagues asked me if I can implement and
submit a progress indicator showing how the loading
process is going through a slow interface. It would be
reasonable to do only if GDB community is interested
in such a feature.

We've been bouncing around ideas internally at CodeSourcery for how improve progress reporting. But that's mostly for the new flash programming interface. Where else do you need a progress indicator that you don't have one already? The MI -target-download already does report progress, based on write size.
