85 the object's compile-time type. If the object actually belongs
86 to some class derived from `type', perhaps with other base
87 classes and additional members, then `type' is just a subobject
88 of the real thing, and the full object is probably larger than
89 `type' would suggest.
90
91 If `type' is a dynamic class (i.e. one with a vtable), then GDB
92 can actually determine the object's run-time type by looking at
93 the run-time type information in the vtable. When this
94 information is available, we may elect to read in the entire
95 object, for several reasons:
96
97 - When printing the value, the user would probably rather see
98 the full object, not just the limited portion apparent from
99 the compile-time type.
100
101 - If `type' has virtual base classes, then even printing
102 `type' alone may require reaching outside the `type'
103 portion of the object to wherever the virtual base class
104 has been stored.
105
106 When we store the entire object, `enclosing_type' is the
107 run-time type --- the complete object --- and `embedded_offset'
108 is the offset of `type' within that larger type, in bytes. The
109 VALUE_CONTENTS macro takes `embedded_offset' into account, so
110 most GDB code continues to see the `type' portion of the value,
111 just as the inferior would.
112
113 If `type' is a pointer to an object, then `enclosing_type' is a
114 pointer to the object's run-time type, and `pointed_to_offset'
115 is the offset in bytes from the full object to the pointed-to
116 object --- that is, the value `embedded_offset' would have if
117 we followed the pointer and fetched the complete object. (I
118 don't really see the point. Why not just determine the
119 run-time type when you indirect, and avoid the special case?
120 The contents don't matter until you indirect anyway.)
121
122 If we're not doing anything fancy, `enclosing_type' is equal to
123 `type', and `embedded_offset' is zero, so everything works
124 normally. */

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