Hi Michael,
Although it might be a bug in Clang, I'd like to get a grip on the DWARF side
of it - i.e. understanding the error and tracking down the root cause.
Also, since dsymutil is an open source project util that generates DWARF files,
I was hoping someone would know where to download the project. Then, I might be
able to debug my problem.
DW_TAG_imported_declaration is the DWARF representation of "using" in
C++ (and similar constructs in other languages). It says to include the
DWARF DIE (and its children) which are pointed to by the DW_AT_import
attribute (an offset in the current compilation unit) into the current
scope.
Appendix D.3 in the DWARF Version 5 spec has an example.
In the error you received, dsymutil says that it could not find the DIE
that the DW_AT_import referenced. You can look at the DWARF debug info
(using readelf or dwarfdump) and see what is at offset 0x4c4f5254. If
that is not a DIE, then the DWARF generated by clang is incorrect. If
it is a DIE, then dysmutil is confused.
