DWARF debugging information confuses rsym, and DWARF-2 information from internal libraries (like libgcc) results in huge executables that don't even run on Windows. Therefore, before the rsym phase, strip all DWARF-2 sections This is a HACK for gcc builds compiled with DWARF-2 symbols (e.g. 4.3.2-tdm-1). The real solution (to be implemented soon) is to parse DWARF-2 line numbers in rsym Amendment to r37851: use objcopy instead of strip because strip gets us more than we bargained for, and strips all debug information too modified tools/rsym.c Don't overrun a heap block when there are discarded relocations svn path=/trunk/; revision=37861
======================== ReactOS Version 0.3.x Updated Dec 16, 2006 ======================== 1. What is ReactOS? ReactOS is an Open Source effort to develop a quality operating system that is compatible with Windows NT applications and drivers. The ReactOS project, although currently focused on Windows XP/2003 drivers compatibility, is always keeping an eye toward compatibility with older version of Windows NT family ( NT 4.0, 2000 (NT 5.0)) and new Windows NT releases (Vista, etc). Applications (Win32 API) compatibility focus is Windows XP. More information is available at http://www.reactos.org/. 2. Building ReactOS See the INSTALL file for more details. 3. More information See the media\doc subdirectory for some sparse notes. 4. Who is responsible See the CREDITS file.
