3 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 22. Provide information
4 about parameters and local variables.
6 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
8 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
9 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
10 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
13 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
15 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
16 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.
18 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
20 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: New interface.
22 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use IMonoBinaryReader instead of binary reader.
24 2002-09-16 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
26 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 20.
28 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
30 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
31 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
33 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
35 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
38 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
40 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
42 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
43 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
44 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
46 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
48 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
51 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
53 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
55 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodAddress): Removed `TrampolineAddress'.
57 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
59 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Changed the file format in a way that allows us
60 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
63 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
65 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
66 new symbol file format.
68 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
70 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
71 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
72 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
74 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
76 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
78 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
79 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
80 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
82 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
84 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
86 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
88 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
90 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

96 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
98 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
100 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
102 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
103 corresponding struct/class declarations.
105 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
107 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
109 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
111 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
112 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
115 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
117 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
119 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
120 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
121 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
123 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
124 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
126 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
128 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
130 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
131 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
132 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
134 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
136 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
138 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
140 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
142 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
143 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
145 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
146 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
147 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
148 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
150 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
151 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
152 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
154 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
156 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
159 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
160 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
162 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
164 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
166 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
167 ModuleBuilder argument.
168 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
169 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
170 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
171 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
172 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
174 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
176 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
177 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
180 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
182 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
183 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
184 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
186 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
188 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
189 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
191 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
193 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
194 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
196 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
198 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
199 to implement C# support.
201 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
202 source directory after applying the patch.
204 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
206 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
208 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
210 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
212 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
214 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
215 method to support nested blocks.
217 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
219 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
220 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
221 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
223 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
225 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
226 to implement variable lifetimes.
228 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
230 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
231 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
233 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
235 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
236 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
237 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
239 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
242 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
244 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
245 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
246 so we don't get recursion loops.
247 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
248 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
249 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
251 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
253 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
255 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
256 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
257 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
258 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
260 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
262 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
264 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
266 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
268 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
269 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
270 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
272 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
273 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
274 contain the full metadata.
275 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
276 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
277 in which source file the method is defined.
278 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
279 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
280 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
282 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
284 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
285 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
286 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
287 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
288 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
289 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
290 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
292 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
293 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
295 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
296 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
298 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
300 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
302 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
304 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
305 platform and assembler independent.
307 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
309 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
312 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
314 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
316 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
319 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
322 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
324 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
325 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
327 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
328 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
330 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
331 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
