Subject: RFC: extend symtabs_from_filename skipping for C++
I'd appreciate comments on this. Barring comments I will check it in
after a couple days.
A while ago Doug committed a patch to change linespec to skip
symtabs_from_filename when possible. This was an important performance
improvement.
We got a bug report in Red Hat bugzilla asking that this be extended to
C++ qualified names:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=787487
This patch implements this idea.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 15.
