Hi All, We are having some doubts while building elf's using new GCC (4.8.1) with DWARF-4. When we build elfs with "-gdwarf-4", and analyzed the parsed details using "readelf",
1. It was seen that the ".debug_line" section always shows the version as "2". But from Appendix F of DWARF 4 spec(page 289, figure 97), we expect it to be "4". Can anyone please clarify why version number of ".debug_line" section is "2" instead of "4". Is it that we need to manually add some other option while building elf? 2. Also, the new section ".debug_types" was not there, when the elf was built with option "-fdebug-types-section". We were using a simple CPP program without any structures/enum etc in it. Could this be the reason? Expecting your swift response....
