5 (MethodSourceEntry): Made this a struct, not a class.
7 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
9 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 27. Added a source
10 file table which is used to search a method by source file + line number.
12 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
14 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
15 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
16 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
18 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
20 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
23 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
25 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index
26 table. Write the type of a local variable or a parameter as an index

38 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
40 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 22. Provide information
41 about parameters and local variables.
43 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
45 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
46 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
47 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
50 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
52 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
53 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.
55 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
57 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: New interface.
59 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use IMonoBinaryReader instead of binary reader.
61 2002-09-16 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
63 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 20.
65 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
67 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
68 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
70 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
72 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
75 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
77 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
79 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
80 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
81 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
83 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
85 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
88 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
90 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
92 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodAddress): Removed `TrampolineAddress'.
94 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
96 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
97 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
100 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
102 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
103 new symbol file format.
105 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
107 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
108 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
109 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
111 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
113 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
115 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
116 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
117 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
119 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
121 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
123 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
125 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
127 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
129 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for arrays.
131 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
133 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
135 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
137 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
139 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
140 corresponding struct/class declarations.
142 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
144 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
146 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
148 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
149 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
152 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
154 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
156 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
157 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
158 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
160 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
161 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
163 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
165 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
167 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
168 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
169 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
171 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
173 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
175 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
177 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
179 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
180 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
182 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
183 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
184 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
185 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
187 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
188 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
189 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
191 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
193 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
196 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
197 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
199 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
201 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
203 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
204 ModuleBuilder argument.
205 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
206 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
207 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
208 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
209 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
211 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
213 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
214 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
217 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
219 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
220 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
221 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
223 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
225 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
226 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
228 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
230 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
231 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
233 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
235 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
236 to implement C# support.
238 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
239 source directory after applying the patch.
241 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
243 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
245 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
247 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
249 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
251 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
252 method to support nested blocks.
254 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
256 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
257 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
258 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
260 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
262 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
263 to implement variable lifetimes.
265 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
267 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
268 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
270 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
272 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
273 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
274 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
276 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
279 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
281 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
282 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
283 so we don't get recursion loops.
284 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
285 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
286 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
288 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
290 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
292 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
293 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
294 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
295 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
297 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
299 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
301 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
303 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
305 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
306 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
307 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
309 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
310 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
311 contain the full metadata.
312 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
313 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
314 in which source file the method is defined.
315 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
316 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
317 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
319 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
321 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
322 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
323 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
324 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
325 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
326 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
327 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
329 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
330 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
332 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
333 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
335 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
337 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
339 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
341 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
342 platform and assembler independent.
344 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
346 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
349 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
351 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
353 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
356 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
359 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
361 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
362 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
364 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
365 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
367 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
368 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
369 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
