9 (MethodSourceEntry): Made this a struct, not a class.
11 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
13 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 27. Added a source
14 file table which is used to search a method by source file + line number.
16 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
18 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
19 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
20 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
22 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
24 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
27 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
29 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index
30 table. Write the type of a local variable or a parameter as an index

42 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
44 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 22. Provide information
45 about parameters and local variables.
47 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
49 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
50 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
51 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
54 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
56 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
57 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.
59 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
61 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: New interface.

65 2002-09-16 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
67 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 20.
69 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
71 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
72 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
74 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
76 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
79 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
81 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
83 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
84 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
85 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.

89 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
92 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
94 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
96 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodAddress): Removed `TrampolineAddress'.
98 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
100 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
101 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
104 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
106 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
107 new symbol file format.
109 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
111 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
112 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
113 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
115 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
117 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
119 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
120 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
121 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
123 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
125 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
127 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
129 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
131 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

139 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
141 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
143 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
144 corresponding struct/class declarations.
146 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
148 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
150 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
152 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
153 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
156 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
158 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
160 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
161 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
162 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
164 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
165 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
167 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
169 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
171 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
172 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
173 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
175 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
177 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
179 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
181 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
183 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
184 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
186 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
187 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
188 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
189 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
191 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
192 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
193 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
195 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
197 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
200 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
201 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
203 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
205 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
207 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
208 ModuleBuilder argument.
209 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
210 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
211 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
212 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
213 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
215 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
217 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
218 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
221 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
223 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
224 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
225 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
227 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
229 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
230 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
232 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
234 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
235 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
237 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
239 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
240 to implement C# support.
242 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
243 source directory after applying the patch.
245 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
247 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
249 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
251 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
253 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
255 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
256 method to support nested blocks.
258 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
260 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
261 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
262 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
264 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
266 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
267 to implement variable lifetimes.
269 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
271 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
272 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
274 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
276 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
277 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
278 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
280 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
283 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
285 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
286 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
287 so we don't get recursion loops.
288 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
289 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
290 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
292 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
294 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
296 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
297 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
298 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
299 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
301 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
303 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
305 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
307 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
309 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
310 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
311 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
313 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
314 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
315 contain the full metadata.
316 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
317 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
318 in which source file the method is defined.
319 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
320 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
321 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
323 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
325 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
326 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
327 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
328 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
329 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
330 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
331 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
333 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
334 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
336 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
337 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
339 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
341 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
343 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
345 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
346 platform and assembler independent.
348 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
350 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
353 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
355 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
357 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
360 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
363 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
365 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
366 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
368 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
369 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
371 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
372 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
373 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
