Subject: COFF .endef Handling of def_symbol_in_progress
Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2001 09:45:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3B97A82C.4B617E22@microchip.com> (raw)
In the obj_coff_endef function, the following exists:
static void
obj_coff_endef (ignore)
int ignore ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED;
{
...
/* Set the section number according to storage class. */
switch (S_GET_STORAGE_CLASS (def_symbol_in_progress))
{
...
case C_FCN:
{
CONST char *name;
S_SET_SEGMENT (def_symbol_in_progress, text_section);
Why is the def_symbol_in_progress' section set to the text_section
versus now_seg? If the compiler/user defines a section that is located
in the code section and is requesting debug information the .bf and .ef
symbols for a function in that section appear in the text section versus
the user-defined section. Is this the correct behavior?
