Hi Guys,
Attached is a patch to make objdump follow links to separate debug
information files when it is disassembling. The separate files may
contain symbol tables that will help to improve the disassembler's
output.
The patch also removes the 'dump_any_debugging' static variable since
it is no longer needed. The function might_need_separate_debug_info()
is sufficient to determine if there is a need to load the separate
files.
Any comments or suggestions for improvements ?
Cheers
Nick
