--- Comment #2 from stu mark <smark at datto dot com> ---
this finally got so annoying I did something about it.
This is not the correct fix, but it seems to keep gdb from hanging and as all I
really want to do in life is debug my program, I don't care if it's not
perfect, I just care that I can continue to debug.
in varobj.c
line 778 or so (this is gdb 7.12.1 I'm playing with here)
/* We ask for one extra child, so that MI can report whether there
are more children. */
for (; to < 0 || i < to + 1; ++i)
{
if ( i > 100 ) // stu fix for hanging when to = -1
break;
varobj_item *item;
"to" is -1 and that makes this loop spin forever
so I added the stop at 100 figuring 100 whatevers is enough for me.
