1 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
3 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): kill more
6 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
8 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): Remove the
9 SourceFileIndex field, we already have the info.
11 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
13 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Don't make the MethodIndexEntry
14 part of the method entry class, because it just
17 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
19 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use
20 fewer arrays, dont use arraylists with structs.
22 2003-12-27 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
24 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Much, much better string writing.
26 2003-12-20 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
28 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Fewer StringBuilder allocs.
30 2003-12-08 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
32 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Create ArrayLists only when needed.
34 2003-12-07 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
36 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: It is faster to do a linear search
37 than it is to make a hashtable. Even though the linear
38 search is O(n^2) while the hashtable is O(n), the allocation
39 cost for a hashtable is *very* high, especially when only
40 a few members will be added.
42 2003-09-06 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
44 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Removed debugging output.
46 2003-08-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

62 field. Specifies whether two local variables have the same name.
64 2003-03-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
66 Added basic support for lexical scopes. This is just to tell a
67 debugger that a local variable is only available in a specific
68 lexical scope and that another variable of the same name may exist
69 in another lexical scope. See debugger/test/TestLexicalScope.cs
72 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (LexicalScopeEntry): New class.
73 (LocalVariableEntry): Added `BlockIndex' field which specifies the
74 lexical scope of this variable.
76 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceBlock): Removed, we're now using
77 LexicalScopeEntry instead.
79 2003-02-22 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

106 2003-02-18 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
108 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MethodEntry.ThisTypeIndex): Renamed to
109 ClassTypeIndex; provide this for all methods so we can get the
110 class of static methods.
112 2003-02-10 Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>
114 * Mono.CSharp.Debugger.build: passing the /r using an 'arg' node works.
115 The <include> node wasn't getting to the compiler. This fixes build
118 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Qualify which Min method. Fixes build breakage
121 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
123 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.ctor): We don't need the
124 `mbuilder_array' anymore.
126 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
128 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Derive from SourceFileEntry.
129 (SourceBlock): We don't need source lines here.
130 (SourceMethod): We're always constructed with source info.
132 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added support for namespaces.
133 (NamespaceEntry): New struct.
134 (SourceFileEntry.DefineNamespace): New method.
135 (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): The table is already sorted,
136 so we don't need to do this here.
138 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
140 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Ooops, I forgot to remove this.
142 2003-02-08 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
144 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: Removed.
146 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Implement ISymbolDocumentWriter.

157 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
159 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MonoSymbolFile.ReadSymbolFile): New public
160 static method, returns null (without throwing an exception) if the
161 assembly doesn't have any debugging info.
163 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
165 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Removed the
166 custom initialization function.
168 * MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: Removed; the code is now in
169 MonoSymbolFile.cs and MonoSymbolWriter.cs.
171 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
173 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: The symbol file is now a resource in the
174 assembly instead of a separate file.
176 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Did a few more cleanups, sort the line
177 number table and remove duplicate line numbers.
179 2003-02-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
181 Modified the symbol file format to speed up method looks by name
182 and cleaned this up a lot.
184 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: New public class. This is now a public class
185 and writes and reads the symbol file.
187 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: Removed.
189 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 29.
191 2003-01-17 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>

195 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
197 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 28.
198 (SourceFileEntry): Read the methods when they're needed.
199 (MethodSourceEntry): Made this a struct, not a class.
201 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
203 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 27. Added a source
204 file table which is used to search a method by source file + line number.
206 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
208 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
209 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
210 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
212 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
214 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
217 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
219 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index
220 table. Write the type of a local variable or a parameter as an index
223 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
225 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Remove all the unused interfaces.
227 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

232 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
234 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 22. Provide information
235 about parameters and local variables.
237 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
239 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
240 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
241 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
244 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
246 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
247 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.
249 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
251 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: New interface.

259 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
261 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
262 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
264 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
266 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
269 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
271 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
273 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
274 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
275 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
277 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
279 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
282 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
284 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

291 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
294 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
296 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
297 new symbol file format.
299 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
301 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
302 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
303 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
305 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
307 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
309 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
310 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
311 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
313 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
315 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
317 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
319 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
321 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

325 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
327 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
329 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
331 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
333 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
334 corresponding struct/class declarations.
336 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
338 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
340 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
342 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
343 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
346 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
348 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
350 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
351 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
352 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
354 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
355 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
357 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
359 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
361 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
362 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
363 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
365 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
367 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
369 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
371 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
373 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
374 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
376 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
377 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
378 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
379 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
381 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
382 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
383 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
385 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
387 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
390 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
391 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
393 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
395 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
397 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
398 ModuleBuilder argument.
399 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
400 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
401 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
402 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
403 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
405 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
407 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
408 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
411 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
413 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
414 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
415 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
417 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
419 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
420 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
422 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
424 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
425 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
427 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
429 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
430 to implement C# support.
432 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
433 source directory after applying the patch.
435 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
437 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
439 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
441 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
443 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
445 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
446 method to support nested blocks.
448 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
450 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
451 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
452 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
454 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
456 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
457 to implement variable lifetimes.
459 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
461 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
462 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
464 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
466 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
467 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
468 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
470 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
473 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
475 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
476 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
477 so we don't get recursion loops.
478 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
479 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
480 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
482 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
484 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
486 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
487 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
488 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
489 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
491 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
493 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
495 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
497 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
499 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
500 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
501 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
503 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
504 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
505 contain the full metadata.
506 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
507 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
508 in which source file the method is defined.
509 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
510 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
511 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
513 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
515 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
516 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
517 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
518 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
519 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
520 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
521 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
523 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
524 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
526 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
527 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
529 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
531 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
533 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.

536 platform and assembler independent.
538 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
540 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
543 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
545 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
547 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
550 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
553 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
555 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
556 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
558 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
559 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
561 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
562 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
563 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
