1 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
3 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
4 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
5 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
7 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
9 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
12 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
14 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
16 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodAddress): Removed `TrampolineAddress'.
18 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
20 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
21 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
24 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
26 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
27 new symbol file format.
29 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
31 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
32 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
33 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
35 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
37 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
39 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
40 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
41 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
43 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
45 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
47 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
49 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
51 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
53 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for arrays.
55 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
57 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
59 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
61 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
63 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
64 corresponding struct/class declarations.
66 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
68 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
70 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
72 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
73 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
76 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
78 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
80 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
81 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
82 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
84 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
85 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
87 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
89 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
91 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
92 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
93 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
95 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
97 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
99 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
101 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
103 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
104 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
106 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
107 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
108 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
109 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
111 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
112 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
113 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
115 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
117 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
120 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
121 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
123 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
125 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
127 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
128 ModuleBuilder argument.
129 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
130 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
131 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
132 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
133 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
135 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
137 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
138 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
141 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
143 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
144 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
145 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
147 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
149 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
150 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
152 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
154 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
155 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
157 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
159 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
160 to implement C# support.
162 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
163 source directory after applying the patch.
165 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
167 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
169 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
171 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
173 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
175 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
176 method to support nested blocks.
178 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
180 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
181 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
182 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
184 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
186 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
187 to implement variable lifetimes.
189 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
191 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
192 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
194 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
196 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
197 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
198 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
200 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
203 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
205 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
206 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
207 so we don't get recursion loops.
208 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
209 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
210 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
212 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
214 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
216 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
217 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
218 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
219 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
221 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
223 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
225 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
227 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
229 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
230 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
231 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
233 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
234 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
235 contain the full metadata.
236 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
237 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
238 in which source file the method is defined.
239 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
240 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
241 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
243 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
245 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
246 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
247 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
248 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
249 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
250 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
251 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
253 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
254 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
256 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
257 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
259 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
261 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
263 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
265 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
266 platform and assembler independent.
268 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
270 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
273 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
275 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
277 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
280 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
283 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
285 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
286 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
288 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
289 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
291 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
292 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
293 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
