42/* To help us find the components of a vtable, we build ourselves a
43 GDB type object representing the vtable structure. Following the
44 V3 ABI, it goes something like this:
45
46 struct gdb_gnu_v3_abi_vtable {
47
48 / * An array of virtual call and virtual base offsets. The real
49 length of this array depends on the class hierarchy; we use
50 negative subscripts to access the elements. Yucky, but
51 better than the alternatives. * /
52 ptrdiff_t vcall_and_vbase_offsets[0];
53
54 / * The offset from a virtual pointer referring to this table
55 to the top of the complete object. * /
56 ptrdiff_t offset_to_top;
57
58 / * The type_info pointer for this class. This is really a
59 std::type_info *, but GDB doesn't really look at the
60 type_info object itself, so we don't bother to get the type
61 exactly right. * /
62 void *type_info;
63
64 / * Virtual table pointers in objects point here. * /
65
66 / * Virtual function pointers. Like the vcall/vbase array, the
67 real length of this table depends on the class hierarchy. * /
68 void (*virtual_functions[0]) ();

71
72 The catch, of course, is that the exact layout of this table
73 depends on the ABI --- word size, endianness, alignment, etc. So
74 the GDB type object is actually a per-architecture kind of thing.
75
