19 about parameters and local variables.
21 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
23 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
24 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
25 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
28 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
30 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
31 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.
33 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
35 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: New interface.

45 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
46 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
48 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
50 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
53 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
55 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
57 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
58 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
59 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.

75 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
78 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
80 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
81 new symbol file format.
83 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
85 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
86 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
87 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
89 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
91 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
93 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
94 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
95 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
97 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
99 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
101 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
103 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
105 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

109 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
111 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
113 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
115 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
117 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
118 corresponding struct/class declarations.
120 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
122 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
124 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
126 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
127 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
130 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
132 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
134 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
135 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
136 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
138 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
139 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
141 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
143 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
145 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
146 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
147 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
149 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
151 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
153 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
155 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
157 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
158 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
160 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
161 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
162 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
163 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
165 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
166 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
167 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
169 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
171 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
174 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
175 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
177 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
179 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
181 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
182 ModuleBuilder argument.
183 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
184 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
185 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
186 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
187 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
189 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
191 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
192 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
195 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
197 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
198 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
199 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
201 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
203 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
204 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
206 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
208 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
209 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
211 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
213 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
214 to implement C# support.
216 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
217 source directory after applying the patch.
219 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
221 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
223 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
225 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
227 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
229 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
230 method to support nested blocks.
232 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
234 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
235 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
236 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
238 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
240 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
241 to implement variable lifetimes.
243 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
245 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
246 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
248 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
250 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
251 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
252 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
254 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
257 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
259 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
260 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
261 so we don't get recursion loops.
262 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
263 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
264 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
266 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
268 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
270 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
271 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
272 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
273 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
275 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
277 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
279 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
281 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
283 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
284 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
285 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
287 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
288 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
289 contain the full metadata.
290 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
291 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
292 in which source file the method is defined.
293 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
294 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
295 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
297 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
299 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
300 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
301 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
302 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
303 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
304 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
305 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
307 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
308 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
310 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
311 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
313 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
315 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
317 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
319 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
320 platform and assembler independent.
322 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
324 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
327 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
329 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
331 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
334 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
337 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
339 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
340 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
342 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
343 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
345 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
