Hi Sandip,
Thanks for the detailed bug report.
I am having trouble converting the texinfo GDB manual to xml. Please
let me know if this is a known issue.
I don't recall seeing it before.
$ makeinfo.new --xml gdb.texinfo
gdb.texinfo:4284: warning: undefined flag:
<item>
GDBN.
Perhaps @set GDBN was never executed in the case of XML output? I
haven't looked at the gdb manual in a while but I recall it being pretty
hairy in these matters.
More likely, though, it's just a bug in --xml; looks like it's doing the
expansion wrongly and considering "<item>\nGDBN" as the name of the
flag, instead of GDBN.
@table @code
@item nostop
@value{GDBN} should not stop your program when this signal happens. It may
still print a message telling you that the signal has come in.
My suggestion is to get the CVS version of texi2html
(www.nongnu.org/texi2html), which can also output the same --xml as
makeinfo, and see if it works properly. (Maybe the very latest
texi2html release also can, I'm not sure; Patrice?)
We plan to replace the C makeinfo implementation with texi2html in the
next release, so that's the place to test/fix.
Thanks,
Karl
