[Dwarf-discuss] dwarf information for mutiple statements at the same line.

[HaiFeng He]

Thanks for the reply. I realized that there is column information
in line_table. However, when I try "dwarfdump" on my test program,
the value of column is always -1. What should I do to get that
information correct?

Thanks
