+<h3 class="section">5.7 Enumerations</h3>
+
+<p>Enumerations are defined with the &lsquo;<samp>e</samp>&rsquo; type descriptor.
+</p>
+<p>The source line below declares an enumeration type at file scope.
+The type definition is located after the <code>N_RBRAC</code> that marks the end of
+the previous procedure&rsquo;s block scope, and before the <code>N_FUN</code> that marks
+the beginning of the next procedure&rsquo;s block scope. Therefore it does not
+describe a block local symbol, but a file local one.
+</p>
+<p>The source line:
+</p>
+<div class="example">
+<pre class="example">enum e_places {first,second=3,last};
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>generates the following stab:
+</p>
+<div class="example">
+<pre class="example">.stabs &quot;e_places:T22=efirst:0,second:3,last:4,;&quot;,128,0,0,0
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>The symbol descriptor (&lsquo;<samp>T</samp>&rsquo;) says that the stab describes a
+structure, enumeration, or union tag. The type descriptor &lsquo;<samp>e</samp>&rsquo;,
+following the &lsquo;<samp>22=</samp>&rsquo; of the type definition narrows it down to an
+enumeration type. Following the &lsquo;<samp>e</samp>&rsquo; is a list of the elements of
+the enumeration. The format is &lsquo;<samp><var>name</var>:<var>value</var>,</samp>&rsquo;. The
+list of elements ends with &lsquo;<samp>;</samp>&rsquo;. The fact that <var>value</var> is
+specified as an integer can cause problems if the value is large. GCC
+2.5.2 tries to output it in octal in that case with a leading zero,
+which is probably a good thing, although GDB 4.11 supports octal only in
+cases where decimal is perfectly good. Negative decimal values are
+supported by both GDB and dbx.
+</p>
+<p>There is no standard way to specify the size of an enumeration type; it
+is determined by the architecture (normally all enumerations types are
+32 bits). Type attributes can be used to specify an enumeration type of
+another size for debuggers which support them; see <a href="String-Field.html#String-Field">String Field</a>.
+</p>
+<p>Enumeration types are unusual in that they define symbols for the
+enumeration values (<code>first</code>, <code>second</code>, and <code>third</code> in the
+above example), and even though these symbols are visible in the file as
+a whole (rather than being in a more local namespace like structure
+member names), they are defined in the type definition for the
+enumeration type rather than each having their own symbol. In order to
+be fast, GDB will only get symbols from such types (in its initial scan
+of the stabs) if the type is the first thing defined after a &lsquo;<samp>T</samp>&rsquo; or
+&lsquo;<samp>t</samp>&rsquo; symbol descriptor (the above example fulfills this
+requirement). If the type does not have a name, the compiler should
+emit it in a nameless stab (see <a href="String-Field.html#String-Field">String Field</a>); GCC does this.
