I suppose it didn't seem useful to provide ranges on namespaces. A C++ namespace isn't a program entity of its own, it's a way of managing names of entities. It doesn't even restrict the scope of those names; you can refer to them anywhere if you use the fully qualified version of the name. (With the obvious caveat about names defined in anonymous namespaces.)
Did you have a reason for considering a namespace to be a program entity? What would that entity do? --paulr From: Dwarf-discuss <dwarf-discuss-bounces+paul.robinson=sony....@lists.dwarfstd.org> On Behalf Of rifkin.jer--- via Dwarf-discuss Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2023 6:51 PM To: dwarf-discuss@lists.dwarfstd.org Subject: [Dwarf-discuss] Ranges for DW_TAG_namespace Hello, What is the reasoning for not including range information on DW_TAG_namespace DIEs? Is there a canonical way to check if a DW_TAG_namespace DIE contains a given address? Thank you, Jeremy
