We are working on a document. Here is current draft: http://wiki.llvm.org/Debug_Information - Devang

I am writing a front end for a new language and am having trouble generating the DWARF debugging information. I'm outputting llvm assembly source so I'm trying to generate the "!metadata" stuff. I have found the document <http://llvm.org/docs/SourceLevelDebugging.html> a helpful start, as far as it goes. However, it doesn't quite match what I see clang produce

Hi All, We've been working on a wiki page to help people build debug information in their own front-ends: http://wiki.llvm.org/Debug_Information It's definitely a work in progress, but it already has the basic format and how to create the basic information (line, functions, variables, basic types). It's not complete nor completely accurate, so if you do spot a problem, please be kind and fix it. ;) If you want to add more informa...

Do we need this doc to be in the release docs? cheers, --renato

Your documentation assumes one is going to use the LLVM provided functions (such as DIFactory::). My front-end can't use them because it is not written in C or C++. I need to know the exact layo...

...e is the code, which is in constant change and has a lot of context; Can we work out a proper stable interface and, if possible, a reasonably stable API? I'm volunteering (again) to start, but I need help, otherwise it'll be yet another [1]. -- cheers, --renato [1] http://wiki.llvm.org/Debug_Information [2] http://llvm.org/docs/SourceLevelDebugging.html [3] http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html
