1 2003-12-08 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
3 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Create ArrayLists only when needed.
5 2003-12-07 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
7 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: It is faster to do a linear search
8 than it is to make a hashtable. Even though the linear
9 search is O(n^2) while the hashtable is O(n), the allocation
10 cost for a hashtable is *very* high, especially when only
11 a few members will be added.
13 2003-09-06 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
15 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Removed debugging output.
17 2003-08-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

33 field. Specifies whether two local variables have the same name.
35 2003-03-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
37 Added basic support for lexical scopes. This is just to tell a
38 debugger that a local variable is only available in a specific
39 lexical scope and that another variable of the same name may exist
40 in another lexical scope. See debugger/test/TestLexicalScope.cs
43 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (LexicalScopeEntry): New class.
44 (LocalVariableEntry): Added `BlockIndex' field which specifies the
45 lexical scope of this variable.
47 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceBlock): Removed, we're now using
48 LexicalScopeEntry instead.
50 2003-02-22 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

75 (MethodEntry.LocalTypes): New public variable.
77 2003-02-18 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
79 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MethodEntry.ThisTypeIndex): Renamed to
80 ClassTypeIndex; provide this for all methods so we can get the
81 class of static methods.
83 2003-02-10 Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>
85 * Mono.CSharp.Debugger.build: passing the /r using an 'arg' node works.
86 The <include> node wasn't getting to the compiler. This fixes build
89 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Qualify which Min method. Fixes build breakage
92 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
94 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.ctor): We don't need the
95 `mbuilder_array' anymore.
97 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
99 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Derive from SourceFileEntry.
100 (SourceBlock): We don't need source lines here.
101 (SourceMethod): We're always constructed with source info.
103 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added support for namespaces.
104 (NamespaceEntry): New struct.
105 (SourceFileEntry.DefineNamespace): New method.
106 (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): The table is already sorted,
107 so we don't need to do this here.
109 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
111 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Ooops, I forgot to remove this.
113 2003-02-08 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
115 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: Removed.
117 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Implement ISymbolDocumentWriter.

128 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
130 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MonoSymbolFile.ReadSymbolFile): New public
131 static method, returns null (without throwing an exception) if the
132 assembly doesn't have any debugging info.
134 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
136 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Removed the
137 custom initialization function.
139 * MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: Removed; the code is now in
140 MonoSymbolFile.cs and MonoSymbolWriter.cs.
142 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
144 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: The symbol file is now a resource in the
145 assembly instead of a separate file.
147 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Did a few more cleanups, sort the line
148 number table and remove duplicate line numbers.
150 2003-02-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
152 Modified the symbol file format to speed up method looks by name
153 and cleaned this up a lot.
155 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: New public class. This is now a public class
156 and writes and reads the symbol file.
158 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: Removed.
160 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 29.
162 2003-01-17 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
164 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Make it work on constructors.
166 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
168 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 28.
169 (SourceFileEntry): Read the methods when they're needed.
170 (MethodSourceEntry): Made this a struct, not a class.
172 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
174 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 27. Added a source
175 file table which is used to search a method by source file + line number.
177 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
179 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
180 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
181 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
183 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
185 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
188 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
190 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index
191 table. Write the type of a local variable or a parameter as an index
194 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
196 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Remove all the unused interfaces.
198 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

206 about parameters and local variables.
208 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
210 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
211 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
212 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
215 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
217 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
218 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.

230 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
232 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
233 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
235 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
237 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
240 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
242 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
244 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
245 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
246 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
248 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
250 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
253 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
255 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

262 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
265 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
267 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
268 new symbol file format.
270 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
272 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
273 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
274 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
276 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
278 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
280 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
281 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
282 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
284 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
286 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
288 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
290 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
292 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

305 corresponding struct/class declarations.
307 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
309 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
311 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
313 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
314 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
317 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
319 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
321 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
322 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
323 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
325 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
326 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
328 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
330 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
332 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
333 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
334 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
336 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
338 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
340 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
342 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
344 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
345 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
347 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
348 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
349 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
350 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
352 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
353 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
354 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
356 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
358 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
361 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
362 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
364 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
366 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
368 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
369 ModuleBuilder argument.
370 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
371 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
372 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
373 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
374 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
376 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
378 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
379 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
382 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
384 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
385 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
386 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
388 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
390 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
391 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
393 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
395 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
396 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
398 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
400 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
401 to implement C# support.
403 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
404 source directory after applying the patch.
406 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
408 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
410 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
412 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
414 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
416 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
417 method to support nested blocks.
419 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
421 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
422 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
423 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
425 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
427 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
428 to implement variable lifetimes.
430 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
432 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
433 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
435 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
437 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
438 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
439 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
441 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
444 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
446 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
447 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
448 so we don't get recursion loops.
449 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
450 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
451 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
453 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
455 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
457 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
458 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
459 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
460 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
462 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
464 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
466 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
468 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
470 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
471 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
472 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
474 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
475 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
476 contain the full metadata.
477 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
478 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
479 in which source file the method is defined.
480 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
481 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
482 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
484 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
486 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
487 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
488 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
489 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
490 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
491 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
492 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
494 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
495 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
497 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
498 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
500 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
502 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
504 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
506 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
507 platform and assembler independent.
509 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
511 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
514 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
516 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
518 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
521 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
524 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
526 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
527 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
529 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
530 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
532 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
533 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
534 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
