Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: Mach Core, enhancement)

Description

It'd be nice to have the ability to use gdb/mi when launching things via mach, that way I could debug mochitests via gud-mode in emacs, for instance.

Check if the INSIDE_EMACS environment variable is set and change the
log level to WARNING to not confuse the emacs/mi with logging messages.

Great!

Given that it now is possible to use gdb/mi using --debugparams this should be done so setting checkin-needed.
