13 about parameters and local variables.
15 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
17 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
18 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
19 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
22 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
24 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
25 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.
27 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
29 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: New interface.

37 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
39 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
40 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
42 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
44 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
47 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
49 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
51 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
52 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
53 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.

57 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
60 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
62 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
64 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodAddress): Removed `TrampolineAddress'.
66 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
68 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
69 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
72 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
74 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
75 new symbol file format.
77 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
79 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
80 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
81 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
83 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
85 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
87 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
88 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
89 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
91 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
93 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
95 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
97 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
99 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

103 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
105 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
107 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
109 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
111 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
112 corresponding struct/class declarations.
114 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
116 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
118 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
120 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
121 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
124 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
126 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
128 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
129 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
130 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
132 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
133 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
135 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
137 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
139 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
140 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
141 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
143 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
145 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
147 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
149 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
151 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
152 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
154 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
155 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
156 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
157 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
159 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
160 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
161 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
163 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
165 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
168 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
169 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
171 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
173 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
175 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
176 ModuleBuilder argument.
177 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
178 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
179 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
180 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
181 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
183 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
185 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
186 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
189 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
191 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
192 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
193 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
195 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
197 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
198 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
200 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
202 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
203 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
205 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
207 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
208 to implement C# support.
210 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
211 source directory after applying the patch.
213 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
215 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
217 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
219 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
221 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
223 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
224 method to support nested blocks.
226 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
228 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
229 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
230 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
232 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
234 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
235 to implement variable lifetimes.
237 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
239 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
240 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
242 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
244 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
245 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
246 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
248 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
251 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
253 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
254 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
255 so we don't get recursion loops.
256 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
257 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
258 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
260 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
262 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
264 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
265 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
266 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
267 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
269 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
271 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
273 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
275 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
277 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
278 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
279 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
281 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
282 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
283 contain the full metadata.
284 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
285 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
286 in which source file the method is defined.
287 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
288 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
289 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
291 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
293 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
294 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
295 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
296 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
297 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
298 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
299 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
301 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
302 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
304 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
305 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
307 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
309 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
311 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
313 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
314 platform and assembler independent.
316 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
318 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
321 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
323 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
325 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
328 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
331 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
333 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
334 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
336 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
337 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
339 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
