22 (NamespaceEntry): New struct.
23 (SourceFileEntry.DefineNamespace): New method.

58 MonoSymbolFile.cs and MonoSymbolWriter.cs.
60 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
62 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: The symbol file is now a resource in the
63 assembly instead of a separate file.
65 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Did a few more cleanups, sort the line
66 number table and remove duplicate line numbers.
68 2003-02-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
70 Modified the symbol file format to speed up method looks by name
71 and cleaned this up a lot.
73 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: New public class. This is now a public class
74 and writes and reads the symbol file.

95 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
97 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
98 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
99 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
101 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
103 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
106 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
108 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index

124 about parameters and local variables.
126 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
128 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
129 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
130 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
133 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
135 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file

180 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
183 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
185 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
186 new symbol file format.
188 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
190 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
191 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
192 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
194 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
196 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
198 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
199 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
200 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
202 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
204 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
206 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
208 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
210 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

223 corresponding struct/class declarations.
225 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
227 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
229 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
231 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
232 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
235 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
237 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
239 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
240 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
241 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
243 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
244 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
246 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
248 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
250 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
251 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
252 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
254 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
256 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
258 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
260 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
262 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
263 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
265 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
266 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
267 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
268 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
270 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
271 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
272 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
274 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
276 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
279 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
280 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
282 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
284 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
286 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
287 ModuleBuilder argument.
288 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
289 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
290 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
291 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
292 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
294 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
296 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
297 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
300 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
302 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
303 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
304 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
306 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
308 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
309 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
311 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
313 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
314 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
316 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
318 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
319 to implement C# support.
321 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
322 source directory after applying the patch.
324 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
326 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
328 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
330 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
332 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
334 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
335 method to support nested blocks.
337 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
339 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
340 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
341 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
343 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
345 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
346 to implement variable lifetimes.
348 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
350 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
351 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
353 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
355 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
356 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
357 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
359 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
362 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
364 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
365 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
366 so we don't get recursion loops.
367 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
368 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
369 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
371 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
373 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
375 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
376 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
377 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
378 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
380 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
382 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
384 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
386 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
388 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
389 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
390 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
392 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
393 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
394 contain the full metadata.
395 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
396 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
397 in which source file the method is defined.
398 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
399 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
400 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
402 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
404 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
405 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
406 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
407 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
408 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
409 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
410 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
412 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
413 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
415 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
416 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
418 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
420 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
422 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
424 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
425 platform and assembler independent.
427 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
429 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
432 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
434 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
436 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
439 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
442 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
444 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
445 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
447 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
448 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
450 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
451 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
452 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
453 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
455 * README, README.relocation-table: Documentation.
