-
-
- <p><strong>Description</strong><br>
- This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a
- target. It includes things like its byte order, name, and which
- routines to call to do various operations.
- </p>
- <p>Every BFD points to a target structure with its <code>xvec</code>
- member.
- </p>
- <p>The macros below are used to dispatch to functions through the
- <code>bfd_target</code> vector. They are used in a number of macros further
- down in <samp>bfd.h</samp>, and are also used when calling various
- routines by hand inside the BFD implementation. The <var>arglist</var>
- argument must be parenthesized; it contains all the arguments
- to the called function.
- </p>
- <p>They make the documentation (more) unpleasant to read, so if
- someone wants to fix this and not break the above, please do.
- </p><div class="example">
- <pre class="example">#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
- ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist)
-
- #ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
- #undef BFD_SEND
- #define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
- (((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \
- ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist) : \
- (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
- #endif
- </pre></div>
- <p>For operations which index on the BFD format:
- </p><div class="example">
- <pre class="example">#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
- (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist)
-
- #ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
- #undef BFD_SEND_FMT
- #define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
- (((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \
- (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist) : \
- (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
- #endif
-
- </pre></div>
- <p>This is the structure which defines the type of BFD this is. The
- <code>xvec</code> member of the struct <code>bfd</code> itself points here. Each
- module that implements access to a different target under BFD,
- defines one of these.
- </p>
- <p>FIXME, these names should be rationalised with the names of
- the entry points which call them. Too bad we can’t have one
- macro to define them both!
