### C++ Class Names

In C++, a class name which is declared with `class`, `struct`, or `union`, is not only a tag, as in C, but also a type name. Thus there should be stabs with both `t` and `T` symbol descriptors (see Typedefs).

To save space, there is a special abbreviation for this case. If the `T` symbol descriptor is followed by `t`, then the stab defines both a type name and a tag.

For example, the C++ code

         struct foo {int x;};

can be represented as either

         .stabs "foo:T19=s4x:1,0,32;;",128,0,0,0       # 128 is N_LSYM
         .stabs "foo:t19",128,0,0,0

or

         .stabs "foo:Tt19=s4x:1,0,32;;",128,0,0,0
