Hi, I think I have discovered a bug in FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE's system C++ compiler: % gcc -v % Using builtin specs. % gcc version 2.95.4 20020320 [FreeBSD] Here is a stripped down example that can be used to reproduce the bug: // ----------- begin bug.cpp ----------- #include <iostream> class Class { public: void M1 (void) { cout << "M1" << endl; }; void M2

Talin, You're developing your own language and tool sets, it brings fresh perspective in our predominately C orientated environment, which is good.

I am not even sure if it is just a darwin gdb implementation

Hi, First, considering I'm using an IRBuilder and a DIBuilder to build my program, how can I automatically bind the CreateAlloca with my named local variable inside the DIBuilder ? Is it automatic with the Twine name of CreateAlloca ? And/Or should I use DIBuilder::createAutoVariable and how ? Then, I'm wondering how to locate back my local variable in memory (register or stack) once i

Binding the alloca to the debug-info metadata is not automatic. You need to emit an intrinsic function call to llvm.dbg.declare to bind the two together. If you are simply trying to emit DWARF for your program, the rest of the processing should already be in place for that. If you are trying to do something else, you would need to describe that so we understand what you need. --paulr From:

Hello, I am working on a llvm based compiler frontend in which, I am using the packed_decimal type encoding. During using the llvm DIBuilder, I found out that the interface to create BasicType with

Hi Paul, How can i make this call to intrinsic from the c++ code ? I'm not working with the IR language, but directly in C++ with IRBuilder::CreateAlloca. My goal is that one : - Generate machine code with an instance of the class 'IRBuilder' - Emit 'ObjFile' class instance with MCJIT - Create a DwarfContext instance directly from the emitted ObjFile object

"IR" often refers to the general concept/semantics, not only the textual format in .ll files (there are 3 main forms - bitcode, textual IR, and the in-memory representation (llvm::Module, etc - constructed using IRBuilder)). A great place to start is to look at what Clang does to produce debug info - it uses IRBuilder, for instance. So you could look at how Clang uses the IRBuilder when

This means that you have to generate all of the debug info for your module with a single DIBuilder instance, since there's no way to use a pre-existing compile unit. TheCU is an internal debug info information that FE should not care about. DIBuilder is meant to use for

Hello Paul, Thanks for the reply. Yes, I am only looking for dwarf support at the moment and planning to support both PLI/COBOL decimal types. Also thanks for the suggestion, you are right as it is going to be rare cases, so it will be better to implement a separate subclass to avoid memory overhead for others. >> (Somebody is actively working on scaled binary operations, although they

DIBuilder is meant to use for one translation unit by FE. If all the internal debug info information is exposed to FE then you'll get DIFactory. I agree, DIBuilder should not expose its internal structure. This is why, on a C-only world,

I'm trying to write a llvm pass to add debug info into a non-debug-info bitcode file. I have been read http://llvm.org/docs/SourceLevelDebugging.html. And I use DIBuilder to produce the debug metadata. I know I can't get all information form ir code . So I add some manual info as test data. After executing my pass, I can find debug info metadata in my generated bitcode. Those metadata

Go ahead and check svn archives for last one year and see how many times I had to update llvm-gcc FE. Hi Devang, First, I'm not attacking anyone. I said before and will say again: the work you've done is

I'm trying to insert some DWARF debugging information into a LLVM IR module by manually parsing the DWARF debug DIEs. I'm doing it that way since I wrote my custom front-end for my language and the DWARF debugging information are provided me as a byte stream for the various DWARF sections. I took a look at the documentation and DwarfDebug class (
