I used the gdb console to unload all symbol files and load new symbol files. The debug view, expressions view, disassembly view doesn't update. I have to perform an instruction stepping in the debug view, than the debug view and the expressions view will get updated. The disassembly view has to be manually refreshed to get it updated.

Instead, DSF-GDB should issue the ISymbolDataChangedDMEvent when it parsed the loads/unloads symbols command. Than debug views, such as the Launch view, expression, memory, disassembly, etc can automiatic refresh itself.

Reproducible: Always
