Hello, I want to fix couple of issues with line info units, STABS (lineinfo.pp) and DWARF (lnfodwrf.pp):
1) Back trace is permanently disabled once a module without line info is encountered. This has already been fixed in STABS (r31026, r31025), similar changes can be applied to DWARF. http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=13518 http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=28283 2) When line info data/result are reused, as already implemented in STABS, if an invalid address is supplied then further calls to get line info may result in undefined behavior. http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=28288 A possible solution to these problems is to completely disable reuse of line info data/result. This will make line info more stable and resilient, but at a cost of decreased performance due to repeated parsing of same modules. Perhaps stability is more important than speed when debugging. Otherwise, we can decide not to care about cases when invalid addresses are supplied and continue reusing line info data/result. In this case I will just re-apply fixes from STABS to DWARF. Any thoughts? Denis _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
