Hello,
I've got not reply to the following message, which was posted on 31/05/2005.
Any change this patch will go in?

Original message below:

Hi,
the DWARF standard says that the DW_TAG_subrage_type tag can contain either
DW_AT_upper_bound or use DW_AT_count to specify upper bound relatively to 
lower bound. The version 6.3 of gdb, and the current CVS, support only 
DW_TAG_upper_bound.

The attached patch adds support for DW_AT_count.

The changelog entry could be:
2005-05-31  Vladimur Prus <ghost@cs.msu.su>

     dwarf2read.c (read_subrange_type): If no DW_AT_upper_bound attribute
         is present, try using DW_AT_count



Comments?
