96/* If a value represents a C++ object, then the `type' field gives the
97 object's compile-time type. If the object actually belongs to some
98 class derived from `type', perhaps with other base classes and
99 additional members, then `type' is just a subobject of the real
100 thing, and the full object is probably larger than `type' would
101 suggest.
102
103 If `type' is a dynamic class (i.e. one with a vtable), then GDB can
104 actually determine the object's run-time type by looking at the
105 run-time type information in the vtable. When this information is
106 available, we may elect to read in the entire object, for several
107 reasons:
108
109 - When printing the value, the user would probably rather see the
110 full object, not just the limited portion apparent from the
111 compile-time type.
112
113 - If `type' has virtual base classes, then even printing `type'
114 alone may require reaching outside the `type' portion of the
115 object to wherever the virtual base class has been stored.
116
117 When we store the entire object, `enclosing_type' is the run-time
118 type -- the complete object -- and `embedded_offset' is the offset
119 of `type' within that larger type, in bytes. The value_contents()
120 macro takes `embedded_offset' into account, so most GDB code
121 continues to see the `type' portion of the value, just as the
122 inferior would.
123
124 If `type' is a pointer to an object, then `enclosing_type' is a
125 pointer to the object's run-time type, and `pointed_to_offset' is
126 the offset in bytes from the full object to the pointed-to object
127 -- that is, the value `embedded_offset' would have if we followed
128 the pointer and fetched the complete object. (I don't really see
129 the point. Why not just determine the run-time type when you
130 indirect, and avoid the special case? The contents don't matter
131 until you indirect anyway.)
132
133 If we're not doing anything fancy, `enclosing_type' is equal to
134 `type', and `embedded_offset' is zero, so everything works
135 normally. */
