Subject: DWARF5
Section: , Page:
It seems that version 5 of the DWARF standard is now being used in at leat two open
source/GNU type implementations, namely LLVM and GCC. This indicates that this version
has been finalised: indeed from the current "open" issues page work is
progressing to version 6.
Does this imply that version 5 is complete?
When will a draft be made available on the download page?
DWARF Version 5 is currently being reviewed and edited
by the DWARF Committee. A public comment draft will be
published in 2-3 months, followed by a final version of
the DWARF Version 5 Standard a couple months later.
Some projects, like GCC or LLVM, may implement DWARF
extensions as a proof-of-concept before submitting
a proposal to the committee, or may implement adopted
proposals prospectively, with the understanding that the
DWARF Version 5 Standard is not yet finalized. Certain
proposals have been been deferred to the DWARF Version 6;
they are not currently being reviewed and no work is
being done on DWARF Version 6.
