Comments on: python scripting in gdb! http://blog.bauermann.eng.br/2008/03/14/python-scripting-in-gdb/ incomplete and abridged Sat, 08 May 2010 06:36:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: bauermann http://blog.bauermann.eng.br/2008/03/14/python-scripting-in-gdb/#comment-2342 bauermann Mon, 29 Dec 2008 11:49:49 +0000 http://bauermann.wordpress.com/?p=80#comment-2342 Well, it's not true that GDB copied the idea from ZeroBUGS. If you look at the mailing list archives in early 2007 you'll see that ZeroBUGS was not mentioned at all when discussions were held to select which scripting language GDB should support. Nor any other debugger was mentioned, if I recall correctly. The discussion was focused on merits of the scripting languages being considered, not on features from other debuggers. You should not make these accusations without any base. But it's true that GDB is lagging behind from other debuggers in terms of features. Lately, the GDB community has been regaining development speed, so perhaps we can catch up. Well, it’s not true that GDB copied the idea from ZeroBUGS.

This shows one more time that the Open Source community copies ideas from others more often than invent new stuff. The ZeroBUGS debugger has introduced Python scripting some two years ago!

It continues to be about the best Google-facing page to find the links to this project. Actually, rhetorical question, is this the same project as PythonGDB at http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/PythonGdb ...that page contains no links to the git repo, from what I can tell. A search for PythonGDB brings up nothing useful for that page. A search for gdb-python brings up the git repo, at least. This is an extraordinarily interesting project, but you guys need to do some PR work. =) Thank you for this page!
