Description Didier Brachet CLA 2013-01-07 09:51:09 EST 
Build Identifier: 

Currently, the TCF agent is able to support only one file format at a time. Either ELF on Linux or PE or ELF on Windows. It would be useful to allow the agent to support several file format in the same debug session especially for cross debugging.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
N/A

This is a proposed patch that adds support for a Symbol & Line number multiplexer. When not enabled; it has no impact on existing code.

This has been tested on Windows with a mix of PE & ELF symbol files.

Eugene, please let me know if you agree with the approach. If yes, I will complete the changes (fix build support in Visual project + some cleanup after more testing) and commit them. Thanks.
