17 name into the symbol file.
19 2004-01-16 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
21 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MonoDebuggerSupport): As suggested by Ben
22 Maurer, create a delegate type for each of the methods and then
25 2004-01-15 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
27 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MonoDebuggerSupport): New public class
28 containing static wrappers for calling the `MonoDebugger_*'
29 function in S.R.Assembly.
31 2004-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
33 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added more #region's and a comment at the
36 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceMethod.BuildLineNumberTable): Removed
37 it here since it's in MethodEntry again.
39 2004-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
41 * ChangeLog, MonoSymbolTable.cs: Reviewed Ben's patches. For
42 those which are not ok, I'll add detailed comments to the source
45 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
47 [Revision 1.41, not approved. Martin]
48 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): kill more
51 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
53 [Revision 1.40, not approved. Martin]
54 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry): Remove the
55 SourceFileIndex field, we already have the info.
57 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
59 [Revision 1.39, approved. Martin]
60 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Don't make the MethodIndexEntry
61 part of the method entry class, because it just
64 2003-12-28 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
66 [Revisions 1.37 and 1.38; not approved. Martin]
67 * MonoSymbolTable.cs (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): Removed.
69 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use
70 fewer arrays, dont use arraylists with structs.
72 2003-12-27 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
74 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Much, much better string writing.
76 2003-12-20 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
78 [Revision 1.36, approved. Martin]
79 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Fewer StringBuilder allocs.
81 2003-12-08 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
83 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Create ArrayLists only when needed.
85 2003-12-07 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
87 [Revision 1.35, approved. Martin]
88 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: It is faster to do a linear search
89 than it is to make a hashtable. Even though the linear
90 search is O(n^2) while the hashtable is O(n), the allocation
91 cost for a hashtable is *very* high, especially when only
92 a few members will be added.
94 2003-09-06 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
96 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Removed debugging output.
98 2003-08-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

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

156 (MethodEntry.LocalTypes): New public variable.
158 2003-02-18 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
160 * MonoSymbolFile.cs (MethodEntry.ThisTypeIndex): Renamed to
161 ClassTypeIndex; provide this for all methods so we can get the
162 class of static methods.
164 2003-02-10 Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>
166 * Mono.CSharp.Debugger.build: passing the /r using an 'arg' node works.
167 The <include> node wasn't getting to the compiler. This fixes build
170 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: Qualify which Min method. Fixes build breakage
173 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
175 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.ctor): We don't need the
176 `mbuilder_array' anymore.
178 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
180 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Derive from SourceFileEntry.
181 (SourceBlock): We don't need source lines here.

184 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Added support for namespaces.
185 (NamespaceEntry): New struct.
186 (SourceFileEntry.DefineNamespace): New method.
187 (MethodEntry.BuildLineNumberTable): The table is already sorted,
188 so we don't need to do this here.
190 2003-02-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
192 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Ooops, I forgot to remove this.
194 2003-02-08 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
196 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: Removed.
198 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SourceFile): Implement ISymbolDocumentWriter.

213 assembly doesn't have any debugging info.
215 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
217 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Removed the
218 custom initialization function.
220 * MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: Removed; the code is now in
221 MonoSymbolFile.cs and MonoSymbolWriter.cs.
223 2003-02-07 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
225 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: The symbol file is now a resource in the
226 assembly instead of a separate file.
228 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Did a few more cleanups, sort the line
229 number table and remove duplicate line numbers.
231 2003-02-05 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
233 Modified the symbol file format to speed up method looks by name
234 and cleaned this up a lot.
236 * MonoSymbolFile.cs: New public class. This is now a public class
237 and writes and reads the symbol file.
239 * IMonoBinaryReader.cs: Removed.
241 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 29.
243 2003-01-17 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>

253 2002-10-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
255 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 27. Added a source
256 file table which is used to search a method by source file + line number.
258 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
260 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 26. Removed all the dynamic
261 stuff, this library now just deals with the compiler generated symbol table.
262 The dynamic stuff is private between the JIT and the debugger.
264 2002-09-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
266 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 25. Added information about
269 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
271 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 24. Added a type index
272 table. Write the type of a local variable or a parameter as an index
275 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
277 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Remove all the unused interfaces.
279 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

284 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
286 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 22. Provide information
287 about parameters and local variables.
289 2002-09-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
291 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Use fullly qualified name for
292 System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.ISymbolWriter rather than `using' this
293 namespace. This allows us to use the name `ISymbolWriter' in our own
296 2002-09-18 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
298 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Set version number to 21. Encode the source file
299 as a 4-byte length field followed by the UTF8 encoded string.

311 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
313 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs, IMonoSymbolWriter.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs:
314 Make all classes and interfaces which don't need to be public internal.
316 2002-09-14 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
318 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Use only CLS-compliant types here, bumped version
321 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: Removed, this is now in the debugger.
323 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
325 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs, IAssemblerWriter.cs, MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs,
326 README, README.relocation-table, csharp-lang.[ch], gdb-csharp-support.patch,
327 gdb-variable-scopes.patch: Removed.
329 2002-09-03 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
331 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs (MonoSymbolTableReader.ImageFile): New
334 * MonoSymbolTable.cs: Bumped version number to 18.
336 2002-08-27 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>

343 open it read-only and to use a specially malloced area for all the
346 2002-08-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
348 * MonoSymbolTableReader.cs: New file. This is the reader for the
349 new symbol file format.
351 2002-08-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
353 * MonoSymbolTable.cs, MonoSymbolTableWriter.cs: New files. This
354 creates a binary application.dbg file which will be used by the
355 JIT to display source lines for exceptions.
357 * list.unix: Disabled the dwarf file writer in the build.
359 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
361 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Initialize): Added
362 assembly name argument. Since the symbol writer needs to read the
363 final assembly, we need to give it its full pathname.
365 2002-08-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
367 * makefile.gnu, list.unix: Added.
369 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
371 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for types in referenced assemblies.
373 2002-07-05 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
375 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for arrays.
377 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
379 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
381 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInheritance): Make this actually work.
383 2002-06-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
385 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs, MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Put all TAG_subprogram's into their
386 corresponding struct/class declarations.
388 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
390 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated.
392 2002-06-28 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
394 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use a TAG_string_type when we're using GNU extensions.
395 Make static struct/class fields actually work. Provide a TAG_typedef for struct's
398 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
400 * IMonoSymbolWriter (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added custom `Initialize' method.
402 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (Initialize): The ISymbolWriter's `Initialize' method
403 is no longer supported and throws an exception.
404 (Initialize (string, string[])): New custom initialization function.
406 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DwarfFileWriter): Added `string[] args' argument
407 to the constructor to pass command line arguments.
409 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: Updated for GDB 5.2.
411 2002-05-30 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
413 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now get's the
414 AssemblyBuilder's `methods' array as third argument.
415 (OpenMethod): Use this array to get the method builder rather than using an
417 (get_method_builder): Removed this interncall.
419 2002-05-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
421 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Finished the type rewrite, put back strings and arrays.
423 2002-05-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
425 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added `FullName' and `Parameters'.
426 (ITypeHandle): New interface.
428 * DwarfFileWriter.cs: Largely reorganized the type writing code. Types are
429 now represented by ITypeHandle objects which are stored in a per-dwarf-writer
430 hash table. At the moment, all types still need to be in one compile unit due
431 to lacking support in gdb - but this new type code here already supports this.
433 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Moved all the subclasses to the top-level and made them
434 public, cleaned up the code, put everything into one compile unit.
435 (DefineLocalVariable): Added a version of this function which takes useful args.
437 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
439 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Added `Sources' and `Methods'
442 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (WriteSymbolTable): New public method. Moved the
443 code that writes the "mono_line_numbers" section here from the LineNumberEngine.
445 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
447 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IVariable): Replaced Token with `ISourceMethod Method'.
449 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now has an additional
450 ModuleBuilder argument.
451 (OpenMethod): Immediately call the `get_method' interncall to get the MethodBase
452 from the token, then store the MethodBase instead of the token. The token may
453 still change during the metadata library's fixup process.
454 (DoFixups): When the image has been written to disk, call the GetToken () method
455 on all MethodBuilders and all ConstructorBuilders to get the final metadata tokens.
457 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
459 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Don't use GNU extensions and produce assembler
460 output which is free of comments and extra whitespaces so that it's suitable
463 2002-05-22 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
465 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Replaced `MethodInfo MethodInfo' with
466 `MethodBase MethodBase' and added `Type ReturnType'. We're now correctly
467 dealing with constructors and not crashing anymore.
469 2002-05-21 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
471 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Write a special line number table which can be read
472 in by the metadata library to get line number information in backtraces.
474 2002-05-06 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
476 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter.Close): Use Assembly.LoadFrom (), not
477 AppDomain.Load () to load the assembly.
479 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
481 * gdb-csharp-support.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
482 to implement C# support.
484 * csharp-lang.c, csharp-lang.h, csharp-mono-lang.c: Copy these into your GDB
485 source directory after applying the patch.
487 2002-04-26 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
489 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieInternalString): Removed.
491 2002-04-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
493 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Reflect latest MonoString changes.
495 2002-04-13 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
497 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): Added `Blocks' property and `AddBlock'
498 method to support nested blocks.
500 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs: Correctly handle nested blocks.
502 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieMember): Provide info for all fields, not just for
503 public ones; also added DW_AT_accessibility.
504 (DieVariable): Reflected latest debug-symfile.c changes.
506 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
508 * gdb-variable-scopes.patch: A patch for GDB (against the latest CVS version)
509 to implement variable lifetimes.
511 2002-04-12 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
513 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (DieVariable): Provide info about the variable's
514 lifetime using DW_AT_begin_scope and a new baulig extension DW_AT_end_scope.
516 2002-03-29 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
518 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: Rewrote most of the string output function, do the
519 number->string conversion manually. It's now taking about 15 seconds to write
520 a symbol file for MCS, no longer more than a minute.
522 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added some profiling code, speeded things up, fixed
525 2002-03-25 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
527 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (CreateType): Return a `DieType'.
528 (RegisterType): Add the type to the type hash before creating dependency types
529 so we don't get recursion loops.
530 (RegisterPointerType): New func to register a "pointer to type" type.
531 (DieTypeDef, DiePointerType, DieArrayType, DieStringType, DieClassType): New
532 types; added support for strings, arrays and basic support for classes.
534 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
536 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: Killed all methods in this interface, no longer needed.
538 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (MonoSymbolWriter): The constructor now takes a string
539 argument which is the full pathname of the assembly - you must call Close()
540 after the assembly has been written to disk since the symbol writer needs to
541 load the finished assembly to get its metadata.
543 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for enums and structs.
545 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
547 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Added support for method parameters.
549 2002-03-24 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
551 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (IMonoSymbolWriter): Removed my custom OpenMethod(),
552 we're now using the ISymbolWriter's method.
553 (IVariable): Added `byte[] Signature' property.
555 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (SetAssembly): New method. This must be called before
556 Close(); the assembly parameter is the already-written assembly, ie. it must
557 contain the full metadata.
558 (OpenMethod): Only take the token argument and set MethodInfo later in DoFixups.
559 (SetMethodSourceRange): You must call this function to tell the symbol writer
560 in which source file the method is defined.
561 (DefineLocal): Store the signature in the local.
562 (DoFixups): Use two new interncalls to set the SourceMethod's MethodInfo field
563 and the LocalVariable's Type field.
565 2002-03-23 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
567 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceBlock): New interface.
568 (ILocalVariable): Renamed this interface to IVariable.
569 (IVariable): Added Line, Type, Token.
570 (ILocalVariable, IMethodParameter): New interfaces, derive from IVariable.
571 (ISourceMethod): Added Blocks. Renamed FirstLine and LastLine to Start and End,
572 changed their type to ISourceLine. Removed CodeSize.
573 (ISourceLine): Renamed Line to Row, added Column. Added OffsetType and Offset.
575 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieLexicalBlock): New class.
576 (MonoDwarfFileWriter.DieMethodVariable): New class.
578 * MonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenScope, CloseScope): Implemented.
579 Reflected latest IMonoSymbolWriter interface changes.
581 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
583 * IAssemblerWriter.cs: New interface.
585 * AssemblerWriterI386.cs: New class.
587 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Use the IAssemblerWriter interface to make this class
588 platform and assembler independent.
590 2002-03-20 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
592 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceMethod): Added FirstLine, LastLine, CodeSize and
595 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: Implemented line number support.
597 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
599 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (ISourceFile, ISourceMethod, ISourceLine, ILocalVariable):
602 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs (OpenMethod): Take a System.Reflection.MethodInfo, not
605 2002-03-19 Martin Baulig <martin@gnome.org>
607 This is an implementation of the System.Diagnostics.SymbolStore.SymbolWriter
608 interface. It's still work in progress and not yet used anywhere.
610 There is some preliminary documentation in the source files and some more
611 docu in the README and README.relocation-table files.
613 * IMonoSymbolWriter.cs: New file.
614 * MonoDwarfFileWriter.cs: New file.
615 * MonoSymbolDocumentWriter.cs: New file.
