gdb master recently learnt how to use GetThreadDescription() [1], so set threadnames using SetThreadDescription() [available since Windows 10 1607] as well. This is superior to using a special exception to indicate the thread name to the debugger, because the thread name isn't missed if you don't have a debugger attached at the time it's set. It's not clear what the encoding of a thread name string is, we assume UTF8 for the moment. For the moment, continue to use the old method as well, for the benefit of older gdb versions etc. [1] https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-April/187833.html |
