[Mono-devel-list] Patch for generating debug info in System.Reflection.Emit

[Rodrigo B. de Oliveira]

Hi,

I've just built the latest mono/mcs/debugger from the repository and
although debugging information is being emitted now, the runtime and
the debugger cannot make use of it. I get no source information on
stack traces and mdb is unable to display source lines.

The only important setting I've used on building mono was --with-preview=no.

Here's a console dump of a session with mdb:

rodrigob at bambuntu:~/dotnet/boo/build$ mdb booish.exe
Mono Debugger
(mdb) run
Starting program: booish.exe
** Message: x86-linux-ptrace.c:77: b6d53bb0 - can't read target memory

0xb725b431      mov    %esp,%ebp
(mdb)

I'm running ubuntu hoary and uname -a reports:
Linux bambuntu 2.6.10-5-k7 #1 Fri May 20 15:49:12 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux

Any ideas?
Rodrigo
