24 @section @code{typedef bfd}
26 A BFD is has type @code{bfd}; objects of this type are the cornerstone
27 of any application using @code{libbfd}. References though the BFD and
28 to data in the BFD give the entire BFD functionality.
30 Here is the struct used to define the type @code{bfd}. This contains
31 the major data about the file, and contains pointers to the rest of
38 The filename the application opened the BFD with.
40 $ CONST char *filename;
42 A pointer to the target jump table.
44 $ struct bfd_target *xvec;
47 To avoid dragging too many header files into every file that
48 includes @file{bfd.h}, IOSTREAM has been declared as a "char *", and MTIME
49 as a "long". Their correct types, to which they are cast when used,
50 are "FILE *" and "time_t".
52 The iostream is the result of an fopen on the filename.
56 Is the file being cached @xref{File Caching}.
60 Marks whether there was a default target specified when the BFD was
61 opened. This is used to select what matching algorithm to use to chose
64 $ boolean target_defaulted;
66 The caching routines use these to maintain a least-recently-used list of
67 BFDs (@pxref{File Caching}).
69 $ struct _bfd *lru_prev, *lru_next;
71 When a file is closed by the caching routines, BFD retains state
72 information on the file here:
78 $ boolean opened_once;
85 Reserved for an unimplemented file locking extension.
89 The format which belongs to the BFD.
93 The direction the BFD was opened with
95 $ enum bfd_direction {no_direction = 0,
97 $ write_direction = 2,
98 $ both_direction = 3} direction;
100 Format_specific flags
104 Currently my_archive is tested before adding origin to anything. I
105 believe that this can become always an add of origin, with origin set
106 to 0 for non archive files.
110 Remember when output has begun, to stop strange things happening.
112 $ boolean output_has_begun;
114 Pointer to linked list of sections
116 $ struct sec *sections;
118 The number of sections
120 $ unsigned int section_count;
122 Stuff only useful for object files:
125 $ bfd_vma start_address;
126 Used for input and output
128 $ unsigned int symcount;
129 Symbol table for output BFD
131 $ struct symbol_cache_entry **outsymbols;
133 Pointer to structure which contains architecture information
135 $ struct bfd_arch_info *arch_info;
137 Stuff only useful for archives:
140 $ struct _bfd *my_archive;
142 $ struct _bfd *archive_head;
145 Used by the back end to hold private data.
149 Used by the application to hold private data
153 Where all the allocated stuff under this BFD goes (@pxref{Memory Usage}).
155 $ struct obstack memory;
165 extern char *strerror();
168 short _bfd_host_big_endian
= 0x0100;
169 /* Accessing the above as (*(char*)&_bfd_host_big_endian), will
170 return 1 if the host is big-endian, 0 otherwise.
171 (assuming that a short is two bytes long!!! FIXME)
172 (See HOST_IS_BIG_ENDIAN_P in bfd.h.) */
175 o - Most functions return nonzero on success (check doc for
176 precise semantics); 0 or NULL on error.
177 o - Internal errors are documented by the value of bfd_error.
178 If that is system_call_error then check errno.
179 o - The easiest way to report this to the user is to use bfd_perror.
