Re: [tcf-dev] How to distinguish between two symbols with the same name
|
Ok. I see that gdb proposes to solve that by prefixing the symbol with
"file.c::" or "function::".
Is this something that would make sense to add in the TCF expression
evaluator?

Hi Christophe,
Expression are evaluated in the context of current selection in the Debug view.
If the selection has a PC, the debugger uses visibility rules of C/C++ to resolve the ambiguity.
This kind of automatic disambiguation covers most of use cases.
However, if user want to see symbol that is not related to current PC, the only way today is the ${symbol_ID} syntax.

Subject: [tcf-dev] How to distinguish between two symbols with the same name
Hi,
In some cases the symbol files used to debug a program includes multiple
symbols with the same name. When debugging using Eclipse, is there a way
to discriminate which symbol we want to resolve (in the Expressions view
for instance)?
I could not find any documentation mentioning that use case. The only
piece that could be useful (but is completely cryptic from the user
point of view) is the ${symbol_ID} syntax for expressions.
Is this missing in the expressions parser?
