RE: Usage of vCont packet please

[Vardhana, Ananda]

Hi Sergio,

Thanks for replying. It compiles fine but the server complains with the 
following error:

[gdb0 info] got message: "vCont?"
[gdb0 info] Sending packet: "vCont;c;C;s;S"
[gdb0 info] got message: "vCont;c:-1"
[gdb0 error] Malformed vCont packet ";c:-1", ignoring

I guess the server is dated and I shall see if I can fix the server side. The 
comment for vCont in the GDB website says vCont is new and using H is being 
obsoleted. I did try H and the server liked it. If you have any comments on my 
conlcusion please let me know

Thanks
Ananda

Hello Ananda,

You mean to use vCont to resume all threads of the inferior, right?

It should be "vCont;c:-1" (note the colon between "c" and "-1").  Could you try 
that?

Thanks,
