Any CU that doesn't contain the address doesn't need to have its child DIEs parsed, just the top level DW_TAG_compile_unit DIE. Then we iterate over all the DIEs always descending into all of the children looking for DW_TAG_subprogram entries that contain the address we are looking for. So if we see a DW_TAG_namespace we just call recursively to parse its children. <br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Sep 14, 2023, at 3:50 PM, rifkin.jer--- via Dwarf-discuss <dwarf-discuss@lists.dwarfstd.org> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><meta charset="UTF-8"><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Menlo-Regular; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Hello,<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">What is the reasoning for not including range information on DW_TAG_namespace DIEs?
