Before this change, trying to call an overloaded function with at least
one character literal in argument would fail. For instance, given these
two functions:
function F (C : Character) return Integer is
begin
return Character'Pos (C);
end F;
function F (I : Integer) return Integer is
begin
return -I;
end F;
We would get the following GDB session:
(gdb) p f('A')
$1 = -65
(gdb) p f(1)
$1 = -1
This is wrong because the first call should select the first F function
and thus return 65.
The root problem is that ada-lang.c:ada_language_arch_info stores in
string_char_type a type whose code is TYPE_CODE_INT instead of
TYPE_CODE_CHAR. As a result, all parsed character literals are turned
into integer values and during overload matching, the TYPE_CODE_CHAR
formal rejects the TYPE_CODE_INT actual.
This change turns string_char_type into a true TYPE_CODE_CHAR type in
ada-lang.c so that we have instead the expected:
(gdb) p f('A')
$1 = 65
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_language_arch_info): Create a TYPE_CODE_CHAR
type instead of a TYPE_CODE_INT one for the string_char_type
and the ada_primitive_type_char types.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/funcall_char.exp: New testcase.
* gdb.ada/funcall_char/foo.adb: New file.
Tested on x86_64-linux, no regression.
