Hi All,
I have noticed an inconsistency with GDB index and the names of
enumerated values. Consider this test case:
enum A { A_A };
enum A a = A_A;
namespace foo {
enum B { B_B };
enum B b = B_B;
};
int main() { return 0; }
Examining the gdb-index--as produced by GDB--shows an inconsistency
between enumerator names inside a namespace vs outside the namespace:
foo::B::B_B
vs
B_B
That is, the enumerator inside the namespace includes the enum name,
but the enumerator outside the namespace doesn't include the enum
name. Is this a bug in GDB?
The index produced by gold does include the enumerator name, and is
therefore inconsistent with GDB--I'm happy to fix one or the other,
but I'm not sure which one is right.

You mean:
foo::B::B_B
vs.
A_A
Right?

I think so.

I think the name of the enumerator should not contain the name of the
enum.
