<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&rsquo;s look at the simple program:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">main()
{
printf(&quot;Hello world&quot;);
}
</pre></div>
<p>When compiled with &lsquo;<samp>-g</samp>&rsquo;, the program above yields the following
<samp>.s</samp> file. Line numbers have been added to make it easier to refer
to parts of the <samp>.s</samp> file in the description of the stabs that
follows.
