At BNR we have a "cross reference" facility for a proprietary language that,
among other things, will produce sizes of data items, offsets from
module-local "0", and running totals thereof. I would appreciate knowing
of a similar xref for the C language. Criteria are:
o Need source for the xref itself in C or executables runnable on
Sun 4 and HP 9000/300.
o The sizes and offsets should appear within a "normal" (cxref-
type) cross reference listing along with other info.
o Would be nice to have running totals in a listing beside the
pertinent data items.
Thanks in advance.

[I suppose you could try to munge together the output of cxref and an "nm"
of the compiled version, but it'd be an interesting challenge. -John]

If you compile a program with the -g option, and run "nm" on it, you will get a raw listing of the base information you want here; piping the output to "awk" and "sort" should make a pretty listing in the format you want. (i.e. to compute running totals and/or group local variable names with their enclosing function's name, etc. >John Hampton (rti!bnrunix!jbh), 919-991-8146 -- Marc Mengel mmengel@cuuxb.att.com attmail!mmengel ...!{lll-crg|att}!cuuxb!mmengel [If anybody actually does this, please let me know. -John] -- Send compilers articles to compilers@ima.isc.com or, perhaps, Levine@YALE.EDU Plausible paths are { decvax | harvard | yale | bbn}!ima Please send responses to the originator of the message -- I cannot forward mail accidentally sent back to compilers.
