[gvd-devel] GVD unable to parse some data structures

[John Fredine]

I am having problems parsing some data structures using gvd.

GVD version: 1.2.5 (20020128)
gdb -v returns:
  GNU gdb Red Hat Linux (5.1-0.71)

details.
  This GDB was configured as "i386-redhat-linux".

Test program:
----------
struct S {
    union {
        struct { int i; } ui1;
        struct { int i; } ui2;
    } u;
};

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    struct S s;

    s.u.ui1.i = 1;
    return 0;
}
----------

When I compile this program and run it under gvd, I am unable to display the 
structure s.  GVD gives a message in the status window which reads "Could 
not parse type or value for s".  It prints fine using gdb however:

(gdb) print s
$8 = {u = {ui1 = {i = }, ui2 = {i = 1}}}
