lookup_name_info::make_ignore_params
A few places in the completion code look for a "(" to find a function's parameter list, in order to strip it, because psymtabs (and gdb index) don't include parameter info in the symbol names. See compare_symbol_name and default_collect_symbol_completion_matches_break_on. This is too naive. Consider: ns_overload2_test::([TAB] We'd want to complete that to: ns_overload2_test::(anonymous namespace)::struct_overload2_test Or: b (anonymous namespace)::[TAB] That currently completes to: b (anonymous namespace) Which is obviously broken. This patch makes that work. Also, the current compare_symbol_name hack means that while this works: "b function([TAB]" -> "b function()" This does not: "b function ([TAB]" This patch fixes that. Whitespace "ignoring" now Just Works, i.e., assuming a symbol named "function(int, long)", this: b function ( int , lon[TAB] completes to: b function ( int , long) To address all of this, this patch builds on top of the rest of the series, and pushes the responsibility of stripping parameters from a lookup name to the new lookup_name_info object, where we can apply per-language rules. Also note that we now only make a version of the lookup name with parameters stripped out where it's actually required to do that, in the psymtab and GDB index code. For C++, the right way to strip parameters is with "cp_remove_params", which uses a real parser (cp-name-parser.y) to split the name into a component tree and then discards parameters. The trouble for completion is that in that case we have an incomplete name, like "foo::func(int" and thus cp_remove_params throws an error. This patch sorts that by adding a cp_remove_params_if_any variant of cp_remove_params that tries removing characters from the end of the string until cp_remove_params works. So cp_remove_params_if_any behaves like this: With a complete name: "foo::func(int)" => foo::func(int) # cp_remove_params_1 succeeds the first time. With an incomplete name: "foo::func(int" => NULL # cp_remove_params fails the first time. "foo::func(in" => NULL # and again... "foo::func(i" => NULL # and again... "foo::func(" => NULL # and again... "foo::func" => "foo::func" # success! Note that even if this approach removes significant rightmost characters, it's still OK, because this parameter stripping is only necessary for psymtabs and gdb index, where we're determining whether to expand a symbol table. Say cp_remove_params_if_any returned "foo::" above for "foo::func(int". That'd cause us to expand more symtabs than ideal (because we'd expand all symtabs with symbols that start with "foo::", not just "foo::func"), but then when we actually look for completion matches, we'd still use the original lookup name, with parameter information ["foo::func(int"], and thus we'll return no false positive to the user. Whether the stripping works as intended and doesn't strip too much is thus covered by a unit test instead of a testsuite test. The "if_any" part of the name refers to the fact that while cp_remove_params returns NULL if the input name has no parameters in the first place, like: "foo::func" => NULL # cp_remove_params cp_remove_params_if_any still returns the function name: "foo::func" => "foo::func" # cp_remove_params_if_any gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-11-08 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (SUBDIR_UNITTESTS_SRCS): Add unittests/lookup_name_info-selftests.c.
