Variables

Different types of stabs describe the various ways that variables can be allocated: on the stack, globally, in registers, in common blocks, statically, or as arguments to a function.

• Stack Variables: Variables allocated on the stack.
• Global Variables: Variables used by more than one source file.
• Register Variables: Variables in registers.
• Common Blocks: Variables statically allocated together.
• Statics: Variables local to one source file.
• Based Variables: Fortran pointer based variables.
• Parameters: Variables for arguments to functions.
