I'm pretty sure it is already more widely implemented than COFF. It is certainly the default debug format for gcc/g++ as well as the intel C++ compiler, and many others. GDB uses it, the commercial debugger I work on NightView (ccur.com) uses it, totalview uses it (another commercial debugger). It is indeed vastly superior to COFF (which I once had to try and get to work with mixed results :-). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
