78 the object's compile-time type. If the object actually belongs
79 to some class derived from `type', perhaps with other base
80 classes and additional members, then `type' is just a subobject
81 of the real thing, and the full object is probably larger than
82 `type' would suggest.
83
84 If `type' is a dynamic class (i.e. one with a vtable), then GDB
85 can actually determine the object's run-time type by looking at
86 the run-time type information in the vtable. When this
87 information is available, we may elect to read in the entire
88 object, for several reasons:
89
90 - When printing the value, the user would probably rather see
91 the full object, not just the limited portion apparent from
92 the compile-time type.
93
94 - If `type' has virtual base classes, then even printing
95 `type' alone may require reaching outside the `type'
96 portion of the object to wherever the virtual base class
97 has been stored.
98
99 When we store the entire object, `enclosing_type' is the
100 run-time type --- the complete object --- and `embedded_offset'
101 is the offset of `type' within that larger type, in bytes. The
102 VALUE_CONTENTS macro takes `embedded_offset' into account, so
103 most GDB code continues to see the `type' portion of the value,
104 just as the inferior would.
105
106 If `type' is a pointer to an object, then `enclosing_type' is a
107 pointer to the object's run-time type, and `pointed_to_offset'
108 is the offset in bytes from the full object to the pointed-to
109 object --- that is, the value `embedded_offset' would have if
110 we followed the pointer and fetched the complete object. (I
111 don't really see the point. Why not just determine the
112 run-time type when you indirect, and avoid the special case?
113 The contents don't matter until you indirect anyway.)
114
115 If we're not doing anything fancy, `enclosing_type' is equal to
116 `type', and `embedded_offset' is zero, so everything works
117 normally. */

141 this member of the chain doesn't need to be watched as part of
142 watching the value itself. This is how GDB avoids watching the
