Hi,
As most of you know, I have been writing a front end to GDB called
CGDB.
However, for a while now, I have been a little disappointed with the MI
interface. In my RFC I have described the problems I have with MI and I
have proposed a new method of communication between GDB and the front
end.
If there is good feedback on this RFC, I will continue research on it,
filling in details that I thought would be best to wait until after an
initial acceptance.
If the RFC is accepted by the community I plan on implementing an
initial version of the XMI interface in GDB, and programming CGDB to
sit on top of GDB. This will at least give the community one open
source front end to GDB and an example to prove that the new
machine interface works.
I can't wait to hear your opinions/comments.
Thanks,
Bob Rossi
