In article <JEFF1.89Sep18120051@docboy.mun.edu> jeff1@garfield.mun.edu (Jeff Sparkes) writes:
I copied readline into the gdb directory to make use of my
extra vi stuff, and had to define the following to get it to link:
int follow_symbolic_links = 1;
char *the_current_working_directory = 0;
char *get_working_directory ();
char *make_absolute ();
pathname_backup ();
To be absolutely clear, I just included those functions from bash.
The behaviour you get when you complete a filename that contains ".."'s
may be inconsistent with Gdb's idea of what that filename should be.
The readline.c needs to be recompiled without any special definitions.
cd readline
make clean
make
