You can't have one tool for everybody and everything. A debugger can
not (and must not) know about all languages. Language specific support
IMO should reside in another layer (IDE, plugin...) between the
debugger and the user.
Never said that. My statement was about pascal (fpc) only.
people debug fpc compiled code, in various ways. some use plain gdb,
others use MSEIDE, some Lazarus, maybe some use other gdb frontends...
Any debug info, encoded into the app must not prevent people from using
any of those methods. That does not mean that all of those must
understand the added info. By far not, only that all of them must not be
stopped from using already present info, just because new info was added.
