Bug ID: 21388
Summary: Sourcing a file that contains an "interpreter-exec mi"
command screws up the CLI
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: cli
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: simon.marchi at ericsson dot com
Target Milestone: ---

Put this in blah.gdb:

interpreter-exec mi "show non-stop"

Then do

(gdb) source blah.gdb

The CLI is screwed up, it's not possible to type.

Hi Simon,

Is this bug is still valid?

I tried to to reproduce this, with release 8.1.1 with no success.

Thanks,
Yacov

I encountered this while debugging bug #23544.
There, I applied a patch to avoid the crash;
but then entering the reproducer will wedge the CLI.

Hi Yacov,

Yes, it seems the problem is still present for me. What platform are you on?

I am on Ubuntu 16.04, I think my build of GDB uses the bundled readline, not
the system one.
