1 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
3 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodAddress): Removed `TrampolineAddress'.
5 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
7 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
8 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
11 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
13 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
14 new symbol file format.
16 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
18 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
19 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
20 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
22 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
24 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
26 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
27 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
28 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
30 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
32 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
34 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
36 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
38 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
40 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for arrays.
42 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
44 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
46 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
48 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
50 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
51 corresponding struct/class declarations.
53 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
55 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
57 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
59 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
60 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
63 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
65 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
67 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
68 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
69 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
71 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
72 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
74 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
76 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
78 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
79 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
80 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
82 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
84 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
86 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
88 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
90 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
91 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
93 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
94 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
95 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
96 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
98 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
99 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
100 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
102 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
104 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
107 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
108 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
110 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
112 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
114 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
115 ModuleBuilder argument.
116 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
117 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
118 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
119 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
120 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
122 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
124 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
125 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
128 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
130 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
131 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
132 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
134 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
136 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
137 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
139 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
141 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
142 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
144 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
146 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
147 to implement C# support.
149 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
150 source directory after applying the patch.
152 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
154 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
156 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
158 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
160 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
162 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
163 method to support nested blocks.
165 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
167 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
168 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
169 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
171 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
173 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
174 to implement variable lifetimes.
176 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
178 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
179 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
181 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
183 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
184 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
185 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
187 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
190 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
192 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
193 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
194 so we don't get recursion loops.
195 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
196 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
197 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
199 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
201 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
203 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
204 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
205 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
206 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
208 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
210 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
212 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
214 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
216 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
217 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
218 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
220 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
221 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
222 contain the full metadata.
223 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
224 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
225 in which source file the method is defined.
226 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
227 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
228 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
230 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
232 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
233 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
234 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
235 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
236 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
237 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
238 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
240 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
241 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
243 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
244 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
246 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
248 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
250 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
252 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
253 platform and assembler independent.
255 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
257 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
260 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
262 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
264 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
267 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
270 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
272 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
273 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
275 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
276 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
278 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
279 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
280 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
