Aha! Line numbers in debug info on Linux!  You came through with it! :)

Nice work!

Thanks! It would have taken less time if gdb actually followed the dwarf2
spec :-(

I'm not seeing any difference from the situation before regarding
win32 debugging using Visual Studio. Ints and char* are visible, but
char[] and objects aren't directly usable. Am I leaving something out?

Arrays will show up as longlongs because CV debug info gives no way to
express what a dynamic array is (if I output it as a struct, that screws up
the function calling conventions). Object contents should be visible.

My mistake. Mea culpa. object variables are visible now in ver
0.103/104. They weren't previously. THANKS!

Odd, however. In Visual Studio debugging:

#void main ()
#{
#  class Person {
#    char[] first;
#    char[] last;
#    int    age;
#
#    this(char[] f, char[] l, int a) {
#      first = f;
#      last = l;
#      age = a;
#    };
#  }
#  Person p = new Person("firstname", "lastname", 12);
#  debug int dbgAge = w.age;
#  debug int _dbgAge = (cast(Person)w).age;  // for watch:
((Person)w).age
#  debug char* dbgFirst = w.first;
#}

The w.age comes out correctly as 12 in the local variable debug
window, and as 12 if you hover the mouse over w.age to get a
"tooltip". However, if you create a watch variable using
((Person)w).age
it is shown as being = 4 ???

Hold off on downloading this. There's a bug in the debug info. I'll see
about posting an update ASAP.
