One thing to realize is that gcc is a family of front ends. This question needs
to be asked separately for each front end. In GNAT, the switch -gnatdt dumps the
entire intermediate representation including the symbol table, and -gnatde
dumps the entity table (which is probably as close as you can come to what you
have in mind).

Sir,
Is there any symbol table representation in gcc like RTL file? If
there is , then how to get it? I am not asking about the symbol table for
the object code generated, which I have seen. I am asking about symbol
table in the front end.
please reply me..
Thanking you,
SRUTHY C.N.

We don't have a dump file for the symbol tables. Debugging symbol
tables is not as much of a problem as debugging optimization passes, so
we have never really needed dump files for them.
In the C family front ends, we use IDENTIFIER_NODE to hold info about
symbols. get_identifier will return the IDENTIFIER_NODE for a string
representing a symbol name. lookup_name will give you the *_DECL in
scope for an IDENTIFIER_NODE. See also the c_scope structure in
c-decl.c.
