The format of debug info is different for each compiler/debugger combo.<br />
You'd have to ask Borland about that.<br />
<br />
Basically it's got to contain the variable name and some pointer into a type-definition table

grg99 is right ... but if you are keen, you may get some information here... this is the source for recognizing the debugging information<br />

When compiling a C program (by Borland c++ ver 3.0), using the option -S, &nbsp;I get an asm file which includes several lines similar to the following:<br />
?debug &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C E94B79902E064B4B2E435050<br />
I know that it is for the debugger but what is its exact meaning ? &nbsp;I would like to get a profound explanation.<br />

debug information

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.
