Hi All,
Dan Berlin has proposed patch in past to add C++ namespace support in
DWARF
debugging information. GDB engineer, David Carlton is using one
variation
of that patch (with bug fixes) in his local tree for GDB testing. I am
working on to add other features like using directives, using
declarations
etc... to complete C++ lang support. But original namespace patch is
still
not in FSF GCC 3.4. What is the reason to hold it back ?
I never got a chance to update it for the current CVS head.
Would it be possible for you to get it in 3.4 before door closes?
Or is it already too late ? Thanks.
Full namespace support will require moving some trees from C++
specific to common, or other magic to deal with the trees that can
appear in USING_STMT and whatnot that we need to be able to deal with.
So far I've managed to get 'using declaration' support without tree
movements.
I have tested sample programs only until now. Once I build libstdc++,
I'll know
more about my approach.
