4 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.
6 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
8 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: New interface.

12 2002-09-16 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
14 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 20.
16 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
18 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
19 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
21 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
23 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
26 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
28 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
30 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
31 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
32 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.

36 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
39 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
41 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

45 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
47 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
48 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
51 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
53 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
54 new symbol file format.
56 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
58 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
59 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
60 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
62 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
64 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
66 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
67 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
68 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
70 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
72 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
74 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
76 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
78 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

84 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
86 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
88 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
90 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
91 corresponding struct/class declarations.
93 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
95 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
97 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
99 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
100 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
103 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
105 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
107 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
108 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
109 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
111 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
112 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
114 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
116 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
118 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
119 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
120 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
122 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
124 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
126 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
128 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
130 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
131 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
133 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
134 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
135 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
136 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
138 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
139 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
140 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
142 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
144 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
147 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
148 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
150 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
152 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
154 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
155 ModuleBuilder argument.
156 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
157 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
158 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
159 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
160 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
162 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
164 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
165 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
168 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
170 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
171 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
172 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
174 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
176 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
177 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
179 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
181 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
182 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
184 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
186 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
187 to implement C# support.
189 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
190 source directory after applying the patch.
192 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
194 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
196 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
198 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
200 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
202 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
203 method to support nested blocks.
205 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
207 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
208 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
209 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
211 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
213 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
214 to implement variable lifetimes.
216 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
218 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
219 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
221 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
223 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
224 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
225 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
227 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
230 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
232 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
233 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
234 so we don't get recursion loops.
235 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
236 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
237 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
239 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
241 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
243 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
244 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
245 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
246 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
248 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
250 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
252 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
254 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
256 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
257 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
258 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
260 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
261 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
262 contain the full metadata.
263 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
264 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
265 in which source file the method is defined.
266 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
267 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
268 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
270 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
272 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
273 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
274 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
275 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
276 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
277 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
278 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
280 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
281 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
283 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
284 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
286 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
288 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
290 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
292 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
293 platform and assembler independent.
295 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
297 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
300 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
302 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
304 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
307 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
310 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
312 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
313 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
315 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
316 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
318 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
319 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
