<h3 class="section">1.4 A Simple Example in C Source</h3>
<p>To get the flavor of how stabs describe source information for a C
program, let's look at the simple program:
<pre class="example"> main()
{
printf("Hello world");
}
</pre>
<p>When compiled with &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">-g</span></samp>&rsquo;, the program above yields the following
<samp><span class="file">.s</span></samp> file. Line numbers have been added to make it easier to refer
to parts of the <samp><span class="file">.s</span></samp> file in the description of the stabs that
follows.
