Handle indexing Ada arrays with enum indices
In Ada, like C, an enum can assign values to the constants. However, unlike C (or any other language supported by gdb), the enum type can also be used as the range of an array. In this case, the user's code references the enum constants, but the compiler translates these to the position of the constant in the enum. So for example one might write: type Enum_With_Gaps is ( LIT0, LIT1, LIT2, LIT3, LIT4 ); for Enum_With_Gaps use ( LIT0 => 3, LIT1 => 5, LIT2 => 8, LIT3 => 13, LIT4 => 21 ); Then index an array like "array(LIT3)" -- but this will be the 4th element in an array of 5 elements, not the 13th element in an array of 19 (assuming I did the math right) elements. gdb supports this to some degree, with the only missing piece being indexing into such an array. This patch implements this missing feature, and also fixes an existing bug, which is that in some situations I believe gdb would mis-compute the resulting array's length. The approach taken here is to try to integrate this feature into the core of gdb. My view is that much of the Ada support should be better integrated with gdb, rather than being "on the side". This, I think, would help avoid code duplication at least. So, I try to take steps toward this goal when possible. Because other languages generally don't allow the user to specify the index type of an array, I simply made the core of gdb unconditionally apply discrete_position when computing the range of such an array. This is a no-op for ordinary types, but applies the enum value-to-position transformation for TYPE_CODE_ENUM. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-05-26 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * ada-lang.c (ada_print_array_index): Change type. Call val_atr. (ada_value_ptr_subscript): Don't call pos_atr on the lower bound. (val_atr): New function. (value_val_atr): Use it. * ada-valprint.c (print_optional_low_bound): Change low bound handling for enums. (val_print_packed_array_elements): Don't call discrete_position. * gdbtypes.c (get_discrete_bounds) <TYPE_CODE_RANGE>: Call discrete_position for enum types. * language.c (default_print_array_index): Change type. * language.h (struct language_defn) <la_print_array_index>: Add index_type parameter, change type of index_value. (LA_PRINT_ARRAY_INDEX): Add index_type parameter. (default_print_array_index): Update. * valprint.c (maybe_print_array_index): Don't call value_from_longest. Update. (value_print_array_elements): Don't call discrete_position. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2020-05-26 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * gdb.ada/arr_acc_idx_w_gap.exp: Add tests.
