3 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added more #region's and a comment at the
6 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceMethod.BuildLineNumberTable): Removed
7 it here since it's in MethodEntry again.
9 2004-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
11 * ChangeLog, MonoSymbolTable.cs: Reviewed Ben's patches. For
12 those which are not ok, I'll add detailed comments to the source
15 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
17 [Revision 1.41, not approved. Martin]
18 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): kill more
21 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
23 [Revision 1.40, not approved. Martin]
24 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): Remove the
25 SourceFileIndex field, we already have the info.
27 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
29 [Revision 1.39, approved. Martin]
30 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Don't make the MethodIndexEntry
31 part of the method entry class, because it just
34 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
36 [Revisions 1.37 and 1.38; not approved. Martin]
37 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): Removed.
39 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use
40 fewer arrays, dont use arraylists with structs.
42 2003-12-27 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
44 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Much, much better string writing.
46 2003-12-20 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
48 [Revision 1.36, approved. Martin]
49 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Fewer StringBuilder allocs.
51 2003-12-08 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
53 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Create ArrayLists only when needed.
55 2003-12-07 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
57 [Revision 1.35, approved. Martin]
58 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: It is faster to do a linear search
59 than it is to make a hashtable. Even though the linear
60 search is O(n^2) while the hashtable is O(n), the allocation
61 cost for a hashtable is *very* high, especially when only
62 a few members will be added.
64 2003-09-06 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
66 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Removed debugging output.
68 2003-08-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

84 field. Specifies whether two local variables have the same name.
86 2003-03-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
88 Added basic support for lexical scopes. This is just to tell a
89 debugger that a local variable is only available in a specific
90 lexical scope and that another variable of the same name may exist
91 in another lexical scope. See debugger/test/TestLexicalScope.cs
94 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (LexicalScopeEntry): New class.
95 (LocalVariableEntry): Added `BlockIndex' field which specifies the
96 lexical scope of this variable.
98 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceBlock): Removed, we're now using
99 LexicalScopeEntry instead.
101 2003-02-22 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
103 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Incremented version number.
105 2003-02-22 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

126 (MethodEntry.LocalTypes): New public variable.
128 2003-02-18 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
130 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MethodEntry.ThisTypeIndex): Renamed to
131 ClassTypeIndex; provide this for all methods so we can get the
132 class of static methods.
134 2003-02-10 Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>
136 * Mono.CSharp.Debugger.build: passing the /r using an 'arg' node works.
137 The <include> node wasn't getting to the compiler. This fixes build
140 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Qualify which Min method. Fixes build breakage
143 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
145 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.ctor): We don't need the
146 `mbuilder_array' anymore.
148 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
150 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Derive from SourceFileEntry.
151 (SourceBlock): We don't need source lines here.

154 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added support for namespaces.
155 (NamespaceEntry): New struct.
156 (SourceFileEntry.DefineNamespace): New method.
157 (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): The table is already sorted,
158 so we don't need to do this here.
160 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
162 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Ooops, I forgot to remove this.
164 2003-02-08 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
166 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: Removed.
168 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Implement ISymbolDocumentWriter.

182 static method, returns null (without throwing an exception) if the
183 assembly doesn't have any debugging info.
185 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
187 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Removed the
188 custom initialization function.
190 * MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: Removed; the code is now in
191 MonoSymbolFile.cs and MonoSymbolWriter.cs.
193 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
195 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: The symbol file is now a resource in the
196 assembly instead of a separate file.
198 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Did a few more cleanups, sort the line
199 number table and remove duplicate line numbers.
201 2003-02-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
203 Modified the symbol file format to speed up method looks by name
204 and cleaned this up a lot.
206 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: New public class. This is now a public class
207 and writes and reads the symbol file.
209 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: Removed.
211 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 29.
213 2003-01-17 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>

219 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 28.
220 (SourceFileEntry): Read the methods when they're needed.
221 (MethodSourceEntry): Made this a struct, not a class.
223 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
225 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 27. Added a source
226 file table which is used to search a method by source file + line number.
228 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
230 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
231 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
232 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
234 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
236 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
239 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
241 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index
242 table. Write the type of a local variable or a parameter as an index
245 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
247 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Remove all the unused interfaces.
249 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

256 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 22. Provide information
257 about parameters and local variables.
259 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
261 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
262 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
263 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
266 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
268 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
269 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.

281 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
283 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
284 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
286 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
288 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
291 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
293 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
295 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
296 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
297 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
299 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
301 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
304 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
306 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

310 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
312 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
313 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
316 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
318 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
319 new symbol file format.
321 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
323 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
324 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
325 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
327 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
329 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
331 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
332 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
333 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
335 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
337 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
339 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
341 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
343 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
345 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for arrays.
347 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
349 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
351 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
353 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
355 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
356 corresponding struct/class declarations.
358 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
360 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
362 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
364 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
365 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
368 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
370 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
372 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
373 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
374 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
376 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
377 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
379 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
381 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
383 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
384 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
385 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
387 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
389 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
391 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
393 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
395 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
396 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
398 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
399 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
400 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
401 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
403 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
404 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
405 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
407 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
409 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
412 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
413 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
415 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
417 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
419 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
420 ModuleBuilder argument.
421 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
422 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
423 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
424 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
425 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
427 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
429 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
430 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
433 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
435 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
436 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
437 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
439 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
441 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
442 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
444 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
446 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
447 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
449 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
451 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
452 to implement C# support.
454 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
455 source directory after applying the patch.
457 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
459 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
461 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
463 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
465 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
467 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
468 method to support nested blocks.
470 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
472 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
473 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
474 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
476 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
478 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
479 to implement variable lifetimes.
481 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
483 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
484 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
486 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
488 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
489 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
490 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
492 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
495 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
497 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
498 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
499 so we don't get recursion loops.
500 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
501 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
502 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
504 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
506 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
508 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
509 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
510 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
511 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
513 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
515 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
517 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
519 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
521 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
522 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
523 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
525 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
526 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
527 contain the full metadata.
528 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
529 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
530 in which source file the method is defined.
531 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
532 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
533 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
535 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
537 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
538 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
539 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
540 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
541 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
542 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
543 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
545 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
546 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
548 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
549 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
551 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
553 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
555 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
557 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
558 platform and assembler independent.
560 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
562 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
565 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
567 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
569 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
572 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
575 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
577 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
578 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
580 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
581 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
583 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
584 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
585 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
