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

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