functions which handle overwriting of forward-referenced types
for stabs file reading.
(lookup_{reference,pointer,function}_type): These just call
the make_*_type functions with a null storage alloc parameter.
* gdbtypes.h (make_{reference,pointer,function}_type): Declare.
* xcoffread.c (smash_to_pointer_type): Remove, no longer used.
* buildsym.c (dbx_lookup_type): Zero result for (-1,-1) arg.
(dbx_alloc_type): Make it easier to understand. No funct change.
(define_symbol: 't'): Don't put the typedef name into the name of
the struct, union, or enum. Bugfix.
(read_type: '*', '&', 'f'): Add comments. Use make_XXX_type
routines to properly handle overwriting preallocated types so that
forward references will work.
(read_enum_type): Force enum values to file scope, due to bug in
Sun compiler output. FIXME, fix later.
Remove unused header_file_prev_index mechanism. It was already
obsolete in gdb-3.5. These comments appeared in 3.5:
/* This code was used before I knew about the instance codes.
My first hypothesis is that it is not necessary now
that instance codes are handled. */
* dbxread.c (add_new_header_file): Remove header_file_prev_index.
* buildsym.h: Remove it and prev_index that saves it.
* buildsym.c (push_subfile, pop_subfile, start_symtab): Remove it.
* solib.c (special_symbol_handling): When called from core files,
must set up debug_addr. Don't print error messages, just return.
* symmisc.c (print_symbol): Less ascii diarrhea for enums, please.
and use it to decide when to print the actual type name rather than
trying to invent the name of a fundamental type. This clears up the
confusion between int/long when they are the same sizes, removes one
obstacle to multi-language support (previously valprint.c thought
everything was a C type), and allows gdb to support distinctions between
explicitly and implicitly signed types when the compiler supports such
distinction in the debug output (as does every ANSI compiler I tested
except for gcc).
basis. See comments in objfiles.h and details in ChangeLog. Also remove
redundant definitions of FRAME_CHAIN_VALID from most of the tm-* files and
use a default definition in frame.h.
* All GDB files that #include defs.h: Removed stdio.h.
(defs.h): #include stdio.h.
This has been tested by building GDBs for all targets hosted on Sun4.
None of the build problems were related to stdio.h inclusion. (n.b.
many configurations don't build for other reasons.)
a ptype to reflect the setting of TARGET_PTR_BIT. Set the
TYPE_FLAGS of a ptype to TYPE_FLAG_UNSIGNED.
* tm-h8300.h, h8300-tdep.c, remote-hms.c: personal checkpoint
* printcmd.c (print_address): if ADDR_BITS_REMOVE is defined, use
it before printing out the hex shape of an address.
