Re: [cdt-dev] Address of global variables using EDC Dwarf Reader

Cool. 

Once you guys left I removed it from the builds and no one complained. That might be a metric.

If you guys do bring it back, you should really take another look at what TCF is doing. There was a lot of overlap between the two which led to a lot of confusion.

No problem.  I’m glad it helped.

 

This might be a good time to ask the list if anyone else out there is using EDC?  It sort of died when the Nokia group fell apart, but we’ve been quietly resurrecting it here at Silicon Labs (with some of the same team from Nokia and former CDT committers).  At some point we’re planning on contributing back our changes and possibly volunteering some committers to help maintain it going forward.

 

Doug, I’ve been meaning to talk to you about this but have just been too swamped.

 

Anyway, I’m just gauging interest at this point.

 

Thanks,

Warren

Hi Vinod,

 

If this is a pure embedded target where the executable will not be relocated, then you can use the symbol table.  See org.eclipse.cdt.debug.edc.symbols.IExecutableSymbolicsReader.findSymbols(String) or org.eclipse.cdt.debug.edc.symbols.IExecutableSymbolicsReader.findUnmangledSymbols(String).

 

Otherwise you’ll the module to get the relocated address.  See org.eclipse.cdt.debug.edc.symbols.IModuleScope.getVariablesByName(String, boolean).  Once you have the IVariable you’re looking for, you can resolve the runtime address by getting the ILocationProvider, then the IVariableLocation, then the IAddress.

 

I hope that helps.

 

Thanks,

Warren

Hi All,

 

We are facing a problem with getting address of global variables using Dwarf Reader (from EDC project).

I can’t find a API which gives the constant address for a global variable (I have checked with Variable.java ).

 

Hope somebody can give a better option to get the same without any side effects.

 

Thanks in Advance,

Vinod
