26 /* How do we represent a source location? I mean, how should we
27 represent them within GDB; the user wants to use all sorts of
28 ambiguous abbreviations, like "break 32" and "break foo.c:32"
29 ("foo.c" may have been #included into several compilation units),
30 but what do we disambiguate those things to?
31
32 - Answer 1: "Filename and line number." (Or column number, if
33 you're picky.) That's not quite good enough. For example, the
34 same source file can be #included into several different
35 compilation units --- which #inclusion do you mean?
36
37 - Answer 2: "Compilation unit, filename, and line number." This is
38 a pretty good answer; GDB's `struct symtab_and_line' basically
39 embodies this representation. But it's still ambiguous; what if a
40 given compilation unit #includes the same file twice --- how can I
41 set a breakpoint on line 12 of the fifth #inclusion of "foo.c"?
42
43 - Answer 3: "Compilation unit, chain of #inclusions, and line
44 number." This is analogous to the way GCC reports errors in
45 #include files:
46
47 $ gcc -c base.c
48 In file included from header2.h:8,
49 from header1.h:3,
50 from base.c:5:
51 header3.h:1: parse error before ')' token
52 $
53
54 GCC tells you exactly what path of #inclusions led you to the
55 problem. It gives you complete information, in a way that the
56 following would not:
57
58 $ gcc -c base.c
59 header3.h:1: parse error before ')' token
60 $
61
62 Converting all of GDB to use this is a big task, and I'm not really
63 suggesting it should be a priority. But this module's whole
64 purpose is to maintain structures describing the macro expansion
65 process, so I think it's appropriate for us to take a little care
66 to do that in a complete fashion.
67
68 In this interface, the first line of a file is numbered 1, not 0.
69 This is the same convention the rest of GDB uses. */

72 /* A table of all the macro definitions for a given compilation unit. */
73 struct macro_table;
74
75 /* The definition of a single macro. */
76 struct macro_definition;
77
78 /* A source file that participated in a compilation unit --- either a
79 main file, or an #included file. If a file is #included more than
80 once, the presence of the `included_from' and `included_at_line'
81 members means that we need to make one instance of this structure
82 for each #inclusion. Taken as a group, these structures form a
83 tree mapping the #inclusions that contributed to the compilation
84 unit, with the main source file as its root.
85
86 Beware --- not every source file mentioned in a compilation unit's
87 symtab structures will appear in the #inclusion tree! As of Oct
88 2002, GCC does record the effect of #line directives in the source
89 line info, but not in macro info. This means that GDB's symtabs
90 (built from the former, among other things) may mention filenames
91 that the #inclusion tree (built from the latter) doesn't have any
92 record of. See macroscope.c:sal_macro_scope for how to accomodate
93 this.
94
95 It's worth noting that libcpp has a simpler way of representing all
96 this, which we should consider switching to. It might even be
97 suitable for ordinary non-macro line number info.
98
99 Suppose you take your main source file, and after each line
100 containing an #include directive you insert the text of the
101 #included file. The result is a big file that pretty much
102 corresponds to the full text the compiler's going to see. There's
103 a one-to-one correspondence between lines in the big file and
104 per-inclusion lines in the source files. (Obviously, #include
105 directives that are #if'd out don't count. And you'll need to
106 append a newline to any file that doesn't end in one, to avoid
107 splicing the last #included line with the next line of the
108 #including file.)
109
110 Libcpp calls line numbers in this big imaginary file "logical line
111 numbers", and has a data structure called a "line map" that can map
112 logical line numbers onto actual source filenames and line numbers,
113 and also tell you the chain of #inclusions responsible for any
114 particular logical line number. Basically, this means you can pass
115 around a single line number and some kind of "compilation unit"
116 object and you get nice, unambiguous source code locations that
117 distinguish between multiple #inclusions of the same file, etc.
118
119 Pretty neat, huh? */
