12 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): Don't write the method's full
13 name into the symbol file.
15 2004-01-16 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
17 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MonoDebuggerSupport): As suggested by Ben
18 Maurer, create a delegate type for each of the methods and then
21 2004-01-15 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
23 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MonoDebuggerSupport): New public class
24 containing static wrappers for calling the `MonoDebugger_*'
25 function in S.R.Assembly.
27 2004-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
29 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added more #region's and a comment at the
32 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceMethod.BuildLineNumberTable): Removed
33 it here since it's in MethodEntry again.
35 2004-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
37 * ChangeLog, MonoSymbolTable.cs: Reviewed Ben's patches. For
38 those which are not ok, I'll add detailed comments to the source
41 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
43 [Revision 1.41, not approved. Martin]
44 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): kill more
47 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
49 [Revision 1.40, not approved. Martin]
50 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): Remove the
51 SourceFileIndex field, we already have the info.
53 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
55 [Revision 1.39, approved. Martin]
56 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Don't make the MethodIndexEntry
57 part of the method entry class, because it just
60 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
62 [Revisions 1.37 and 1.38; not approved. Martin]
63 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): Removed.
65 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use
66 fewer arrays, dont use arraylists with structs.
68 2003-12-27 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
70 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Much, much better string writing.
72 2003-12-20 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
74 [Revision 1.36, approved. Martin]
75 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Fewer StringBuilder allocs.
77 2003-12-08 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
79 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Create ArrayLists only when needed.
81 2003-12-07 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
83 [Revision 1.35, approved. Martin]
84 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: It is faster to do a linear search
85 than it is to make a hashtable. Even though the linear
86 search is O(n^2) while the hashtable is O(n), the allocation
87 cost for a hashtable is *very* high, especially when only
88 a few members will be added.
90 2003-09-06 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
92 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Removed debugging output.
94 2003-08-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

110 field. Specifies whether two local variables have the same name.
112 2003-03-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
114 Added basic support for lexical scopes. This is just to tell a
115 debugger that a local variable is only available in a specific
116 lexical scope and that another variable of the same name may exist
117 in another lexical scope. See debugger/test/TestLexicalScope.cs
120 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (LexicalScopeEntry): New class.
121 (LocalVariableEntry): Added `BlockIndex' field which specifies the
122 lexical scope of this variable.
124 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceBlock): Removed, we're now using
125 LexicalScopeEntry instead.
127 2003-02-22 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
129 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Incremented version number.
131 2003-02-22 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

152 (MethodEntry.LocalTypes): New public variable.
154 2003-02-18 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
156 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MethodEntry.ThisTypeIndex): Renamed to
157 ClassTypeIndex; provide this for all methods so we can get the
158 class of static methods.
160 2003-02-10 Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>
162 * Mono.CSharp.Debugger.build: passing the /r using an 'arg' node works.
163 The <include> node wasn't getting to the compiler. This fixes build
166 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Qualify which Min method. Fixes build breakage
169 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
171 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.ctor): We don't need the
172 `mbuilder_array' anymore.
174 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
176 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Derive from SourceFileEntry.
177 (SourceBlock): We don't need source lines here.
178 (SourceMethod): We're always constructed with source info.
180 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added support for namespaces.
181 (NamespaceEntry): New struct.
182 (SourceFileEntry.DefineNamespace): New method.
183 (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): The table is already sorted,
184 so we don't need to do this here.
186 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
188 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Ooops, I forgot to remove this.
190 2003-02-08 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
192 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: Removed.
194 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Implement ISymbolDocumentWriter.

208 static method, returns null (without throwing an exception) if the
209 assembly doesn't have any debugging info.
211 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
213 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Removed the
214 custom initialization function.
216 * MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: Removed; the code is now in
217 MonoSymbolFile.cs and MonoSymbolWriter.cs.
219 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
221 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: The symbol file is now a resource in the
222 assembly instead of a separate file.
224 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Did a few more cleanups, sort the line
225 number table and remove duplicate line numbers.
227 2003-02-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
229 Modified the symbol file format to speed up method looks by name
230 and cleaned this up a lot.
232 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: New public class. This is now a public class
233 and writes and reads the symbol file.
235 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: Removed.
237 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 29.
239 2003-01-17 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>

249 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
251 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 27. Added a source
252 file table which is used to search a method by source file + line number.
254 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
256 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
257 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
258 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
260 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
262 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
265 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
267 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index
268 table. Write the type of a local variable or a parameter as an index
271 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
273 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Remove all the unused interfaces.
275 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

280 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
282 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 22. Provide information
283 about parameters and local variables.
285 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
287 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
288 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
289 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
292 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
294 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
295 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.

307 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
309 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
310 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
312 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
314 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
317 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
319 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
321 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
322 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
323 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
325 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
327 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
330 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
332 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

336 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
338 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
339 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
342 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
344 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
345 new symbol file format.
347 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
349 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
350 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
351 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
353 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
355 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
357 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
358 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
359 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
361 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
363 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
365 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
367 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
369 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
371 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for arrays.
373 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
375 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
377 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
379 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
381 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
382 corresponding struct/class declarations.
384 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
386 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
388 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
390 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
391 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
394 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
396 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
398 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
399 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
400 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
402 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
403 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
405 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
407 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
409 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
410 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
411 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
413 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
415 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
417 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
419 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
421 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
422 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
424 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
425 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
426 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
427 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
429 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
430 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
431 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
433 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
435 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
438 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
439 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
441 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
443 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
445 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
446 ModuleBuilder argument.
447 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
448 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
449 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
450 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
451 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
453 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
455 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
456 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
459 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
461 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
462 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
463 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
465 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
467 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
468 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
470 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
472 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
473 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
475 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
477 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
478 to implement C# support.
480 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
481 source directory after applying the patch.
483 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
485 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
487 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
489 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
491 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
493 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
494 method to support nested blocks.
496 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
498 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
499 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
500 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
502 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
504 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
505 to implement variable lifetimes.
507 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
509 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
510 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
512 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
514 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
515 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
516 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
518 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
521 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
523 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
524 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
525 so we don't get recursion loops.
526 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
527 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
528 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
530 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
532 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
534 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
535 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
536 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
537 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
539 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
541 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
543 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
545 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
547 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
548 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
549 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
551 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
552 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
553 contain the full metadata.
554 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
555 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
556 in which source file the method is defined.
557 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
558 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
559 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
561 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
563 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
564 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
565 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
566 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
567 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
568 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
569 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
571 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
572 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
574 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
575 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
577 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
579 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
581 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
583 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
584 platform and assembler independent.
586 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
588 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
591 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
593 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
595 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
598 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
601 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
603 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
604 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
606 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
607 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
609 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
610 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
611 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
