It doesn't looks like we have Dwarf attribute for type qualifier. Is there a non standard way to code theses ? Do someone know the procedure to get these in the standard ?

Andrei, Walter, one of you care to do it ? I do think the request would carry more weight if it comes from you guys.

Thanks. Just sent this:

"The D programming language (http://dlang.org) defines three type qualifiers: const, immutable, and shared. They are similar in effect on types to the qualifiers in other languages (such as const in C++). Adding attributes for these type qualifiers to DWARF would improve inspection and debugging of D programs."

Anyway, keep us posted about how it goes. I have no idea how the standardization process works. I'm available to help if that is needed.

I was also meaning to get round to requesting that import declarations have an optional DW_AT_accessibility tag associated with them.  So we are able to distinguish between public and private imports.

If it gets accepted, I'll likely be the one implemented it, giving my new title over in GDB. :-)
