9 * symtab.h (struct type): Moved C++-specific fields into new type
10 `struct cplus_struct_type'. Now takes 10% less memory. Many
11 macros changed.
12 * symtab.c (init_type): Don't set fields belonging to
13 TYPE_CPLUS_SPECIFIC unless TYPE is TYPE_CODE_STRUCT.
14 * buildsym.c (read_type): Allocate TYPE_CPLUS_SPECIFIC for
15 TYPE_CODE_STRUCT.
16 (read_struct_type): Ditto. Also, add comments about how we can
17 deduce TYPE_VPTR_FIELDNO from inheritance info and fieldname info.
18 * coffread.c (decode_base_type): Allocate TYPE_CPLUS_SPECIFIC for
19 TYPE_CODE_STRUCT.
20 (read_struct_type): Ditto.
21 * dwarfread.c (struct_type): Ditto.
22
23 * symtab.c (read_range_type): Don't set TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT.
24 (lookup_pointer_type): Don't use or set TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT.
25 (lookup_reference_type): Ditto.
26
27 * cplus-dem.c: Many changes made to handle decoding of
28 ANSI-mangled names.
29 * symtab.c (gdb_mangle_name): Mangle/demangle ANSI-mangled names
30 as well.

39 * symfile.c: Add function compact_misc_function_vector() to
40 remove duplicate misc function vector entries. See comments
41 in source for why this is necessary/desirable.

43 * dwarfread.c: Add misc function type parameter to internal
44 record_misc_function(). Remove calls to init_misc_bunches()
45 and condense_misc_bunches(), these are now done in elfread.c.
46
47 * elfread.c: Add support for reading bfd canonical symbol tables
48 and generating misc function vector entries for global and
49 absolute symbols. Do calls to init_misc_bunches() and
50 condense_misc_bunches() where they will enclose all calls to
51 record_misc_function(), including those in dwarfread.c.

74 Motorola 88000 port without tears, I mean without tdescs.
75
76 * m88k-tdep.c: Blow away all tdesc stuff.
77 Provide functions for all the frame-related macros in
78 tm-delta88.h. Adopt i960-style EXTRA_FRAME_INFO.
79 (examine_prologue, frame_find_saved_regs, skip_prologue): borrow
80 from i960-tdep.c and adapt to the function prologues on the 88k.
81 (read_next_frame_reg): Borrow from mips-tdep.c.
82 FIXME: frame_locals_address should go away.
83
84 * tm-delta88.h: Dump all the tdesc stuff.
85 Macros for all frame-related stuff call fns of same name.
86 Remove duplicated definitions. FP_REGNUM becomes same as
87 SP_REGNUM.
88
89 * xm-88k.h: Eliminate lots of library dependencies, now handled
90 in libiberty. Eliminate KDB nonsupport.
91
92 * doc/gdbint.texinfo: Add rudiments on frames. FIXME, add more.
93
94
95 * stack.c (frame_info): Mark frameless functions.
96 Print locals address (FIXME, remove if same).
97 * blockframe.c: Comment changes, FIXME after.
98 * coffread.c: Even without TDESC, need to zap "@" symbols.
99 Don't register for wierd format names; change the names in BFD.

111 * symtab.c (decode_line_1): Remove spurious call to operator_chars.
112
113 Allow setting breakpoints on C++ destructors.
114 * valops.c (destructor_name_p): Don't check TYPE_HAS_DESTRUCTOR,
115 since it lies. Rely on callers to catch missing destructors.
116 * symtab.c (decode_line_1): For example (see above), here.
117 * buildsym.c, symtab.h: Remove TYPE_FLAGS_HAS{CON,DE}STRUCTOR
118 flags since they are no longer used.
119
120 Fixes to support C++ methods with functional parameters.
121 * c-exp.y (func_mod rule): Allow (and ignore) list of parameter
122 types in a function type.
123 * eval.c (parse_and_eval_type), value.h: New function,
124 parse_and_eval_type, is based on old code from check_stub_method.
125 But don't actually evaluate the cast, since that calls
126 value_cast(), whcih may fail. Just extract the type
127 from the parsed expression.
128 * values.c (check_stub_method): While looping through the
129 arguments, adjust depth *after* parameter has been handled.
130 Replace call and setup of parse_and_eval with new function
131 parse_and_eval_type.

200 (dbx_symfile_read, dbx_symfile_init, fill_symbuf, read_dbx_symtab,
201 start_psymtab, psymtab_to_symtab_1, read_ofile_symtab,
202 dbx_psymtab_to_symtab, ): Use bfd ops, don't use file descriptor.
203 Pass objfile. Change callers.
204 (fill_symbuf, SWAP_SYMBOL): Take bfd as arg.
205 (read_dbx_symtab): Just wipe out new symbols, not all, on error.

279 READ_MIPS_FORMAT, which have been unused since BFD. Still
280 remaining is COFF_NO_LONG_FILE_NAMES.

287 Complain if no auxents on .bf and .ef FCN symbols, and assume
288 lots of line numbers.
289 (init_linenos, enter_linenos): Use a sentinel at the end of the
290 read-in linenos, to make for a fast, safe loop-end test.
291
292Wed Nov 6 02:54:08 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
293
294 * coffread.c (read_coff_symtab): coffread used to rely on the
295 x_sym.x_misc.x_lnsz.x_lnno field giving the # of linnos in a
296 function. Two of the formats I'm using (29k and 88k) don't seem to
297 set it. Ths patch to fcn_last_line and (enter_linenos) is an
298 attempt to use the actual size of the linno table in the file to set
299 the number of linenos to process.

303 * Makefile.in: put a - infront of the mv y.tab.c c-exp.tab.c and
304 mv y.tab.c m2-exp.tab.c, so that if bison is used, and the files
305 are created in place, so the mv fails, then the make continues.

309 Add C++ as a separate language.
310 * defs.h (enum language): Add language_cplus.
311 * dwarfread.c (end_symtab): Support language_cplus.
312 * c-exp.y: Add new struct language_defn cplus_language_defn.
313 Don't set c to be the default language (see main.c).
314 * c-exp.y (yylex): Only look for field of this if
315 language is C++. (First difference from C!)
316 * language.c: Add case branches for C++ (currently, all
317 the same as C). Also, add c++ to "usage" note for "set lang".
318 * valprint.c (typedef_print). Add case branches for C++.
319 * main.c (main): New way to set initial language: Look at
320 file extension of psymtab containing main(). (Same as we
321 do for symtabs, but avoid loading the symtab yet.)
322 * symtab.c: New routine find_main_psymtab(), used by main()
323 to set initial language.
324 * symfile.c (allocate_symtab): Move code for mapping file
325 extensions-> languages to new deduce_language_from_filename().
326
327 Fix a C++ problem when looking for methods in super-classes.
328 There was confusion between base and derived types.
329 * valops.c (value_fn_field): Change function interface.
330 * values.c: Use new value_fn_field interface.

334 * infrun.c: Fixed typo in comment.
335 * utils.c: All the v*fprintf emulation is now in libiberty,
336 so we can get rid of some junk.
337 * xm-sun3os4.h, xm-sun4os4.h, xconfig/decstation, xconfig/i386sco,
338 xconfig/sun3os4, xconfig/sun4os4: Don`t need HAVE_STRSTR any more.
339 * m68k-pinsn.c (print_insn_arg): Support BB/BW/BL
340 type operands, as used by branch instructions.
341 * gmalloc.c: Fix prototype of memcpy.
342 * elfread.c: Comment out register_addr, since it conflicts
343 with the one in coredep.c.
344 * buildsym.h: Remove extern declarations of two functions
345 that are really static in buildsym.c.
346 * tm-mips.h: Add symbolic names for more registers.
347 * mips-xdep.c (store_inferior_registers): Use new register names.
348 * xm-mips.h: Simplify REGISTER_U_ADDR, since it is now
349 only used for core files, not ptrace. Therefore,
350 the KERNEL_U_ADDR hack is no longer needed.
351 The mapping to ptrace number is now in in mips-xdep.c.
352 * mips-xdep.c: Define REGISTER_PTRACE_ADDR (using the
353 mapping from the old REGISTER_U_ADDR), and use it
354 in {fetch,store}_inferior_registers.
355 * mipsread.c: Rename #include ecoff.h to new name coff-mips.h.
356 * mips-tdep.c (mips_push_dummy_frame, mips_pop_frame):
357 Save/restore FP regs correctly (?).
358 * dbxread.c: Remove duplicate define_symbol and type_synonym_name
359 (these had been previously moved to buildsym.c).
360 Hence, define_symbol becomes extern instead of static.
361 * buildsym.c (read_struct_type): Comment out bogus handling
362 of C++ operator methods. Minor hacking of reading of class
363 contexts. Make define_symbol non-static, so dbxread.c can call it.

368 filename with error messages.
369 * stack.c (frame_select_command): Rename to select_frame_command
370 to avoid "fr" and "fra" having nonunique completions.
371 * symfile.c (sort_symtab_syms): Ignore sort of zero symtab *.
372 (symfile_init): Print file format name when unable to handle it.
373 (free_named_symtabs): Use BLOCKVECTOR rather than obsolete BLOCKLIST.
374 * symmisc.c (free_symtab): Only free linetable if nonzero.
375 * symtab.h: Remove obsolete BLOCKLIST macros.

379 * infrun.c (wait_for_inferior): another stepi/nexti fix. Ensure
380 that stop_step is 1 at bottom of main loop. I don't know why this
381 needs to be done, but it helps me sleep better at night.

392 (compare_line_numbers): Add from xcoffread.c.
393 (end_symtab): New params say whether to sort pendings and
394 linetable. Patch block stabs if defined. Shrink linetable before
395 allocating the symtab.
396 * buildsym.h: Delete line_vector* and prev_line_number. Add
397 global_stabs and file_stabs for xcoffread.
398 * dbxread.c (start_subfile): Move to buildsym. Change above calls.
399 * symtab.h: LINETABLE(symtab) can now be null. Zap LINELIST.
400 * symmisc.c, symtab.c: Cope with null LINETABLEs.

426 * cplus-dem.c (cplus-demangle): added support for templates, static
427 data, and the new (correct) mangling for destructors.

429 * dwarfread.c: (dwarfwarn): created a varargs version of
430 dwarfwarn, for non __STDC__ compilers.
431
432 * c-exp.y: (yylex): added match for "template" token.
433 (typebase): added TEMPLATE name '<' type '>' clause, for explicit
434 specification of template types.

436 * symtab.c: (lookup_template_type): new function for finding
437 templates in symbol table.
438 (type_name_no_tag): changed to explicitly check for s/u/e at the
439 beginning of the symbol - if it is a template, none of these will
440 be there (but the name will still contain spaces.)

444 Various fixes to improve g++ debugging.
445 * symtab.h: Add is_const and is_volatile flags for each method.
446 These are bit fields - take their space from voffset,
447 which shrinks to 30 bits. Since voffset is now a bitfield,
448 make it unsigned for portability. This changes its interpretation
449 slightly: Static methods now have voffset 1 instead of -1,
450 and virtual offsets start at 2, not 1.
451 * symtab.c: Renamed gdb_mangle_typename to gdb_mangle_name,
452 since it now returns an entire magled method name, not just
453 the type part. This avoids some duplication.
454 It also allows us to correctly mangle const and volatile
455 methods (using the new is_const and is_volatile bit fields
456 mentioned above).
457 * valprint.c (type_print_base), values.c (check_stub_method):
458 Simplify by using new gdb_mangle_name.
459 * values.c (value_headof): Fix to correctly handle single
460 inheritance (actually two fixes, either of which suffices).
461 * dbxread.c (read_struct_type): Handle const and volatile
462 method specifiers.
463 * dbxread.c (read_struct_type): Yet one more place where
464 we must handle '\\' continuations.
465 * valprint.c (vtbl_ptr_name): Add final '\0'.

488 tm-sun3.h: Remove locally duplicated code for calling functions
489 in the inferior. The only differences were in the specific trap
490 vectors used and whether or not an fpu was present. These are
491 now handled by appropriate definitions of BPT_VECTOR and
492 HAVE_68881 respectively. Other minor obvious cleanups.

531 TARGET_INT_BIT, TARGET_LONG_BIT, TARGET_FLOAT_BIT,
532 TARGET_DOUBLE_BIT, TARGET_LONG_DOUBLE_BIT, TARGET_COMPLEX_BIT, and
533 TARGET_DOUBLE_COMPLEX_BIT, as the sizes in bits of the indicated

540 rather than wait().

547 the same as error() except that it returns normally rather than
548 jumping back to command level. Modules that don't want to call
549 warning() for some reason, but want to produce their own warnings,
550 can call warning_setup() to ensure compatibility with the way
551 warning() and error() deal with the terminal.

577 union / enum is defined in a header file but nowhere else used,
578 (by typedefing, pointer referencing or declaration) the mipsread code
579 builds the complete tree for the structure but leaves its code as
580 TYPE_CODE_UNDEF as it doesn't know what kind of aggregate it is.
