Function Documentation

Elf32_Sym* melf_symbolTableAddSymbol (  MELF *    melf, ELF_SPEC_HEADER *    symTable, const char *    name )

Adds a new symbol with the given name to the symbol table. Parameters: melf  [in] The melf context. symTable  [in] The symbol table to operate on. name  [in] The name of the symbol. This can be NULL. Examples: new.c.

ELF_SPEC_HEADER* melf_symbolTableCreate (  MELF *    melf, const char *    name )

Creates a symbol table with the specified name. Parameters: melf  [in] The melf context. name  [in] The name of the symbol table. This can be NULL. Returns: On success, an initialized symbol table section is returned. Otherwise, NULL is returned. Examples: new.c.

Elf32_Sym* melf_symbolTableEnum (  MELF *    melf, ELF_SPEC_HEADER *    symTable, unsigned long    index )

Enumerates the symbol table at the given index. Indexes start at 0. Parameters: melf  [in] The melf context. symTable  [in] The symbol table to operate on. index  [in] The index to enumerate at. Returns: If the index is valid, a valid pointer to a symbol will be returned. Otherwise, NULL is returned.

void melf_symbolTableInitializeEntryList (  MELF *    melf, ELF_SPEC_HEADER *    sect )

Initializes the entry list for the given section. It is not recommended that this function be called directly. Parameters: melf  [in] The melf context. sect  [in] The section that is being operated on.

unsigned long melf_symbolTableRecalculateOffsets (  MELF *    melf, ELF_SPEC_HEADER *    relatedSection, unsigned long    offset, unsigned long    contentLength )

Adjusts offsets of symbols in a related section. Parameters: melf  [in] The melf context. relatedSection  [in] The section that has been modified and is potentially related to some symbol tables. offset  [in] The offset at which new content was inserted. contentLength  [in] The length of the content that was inserted. Returns: On success, the number of symbols adjusted is returned. Otherwise, 0 is returned if none were adjusted.

unsigned long melf_symbolTableRemoveSymbol (  MELF *    melf, ELF_SPEC_HEADER *    symTable, Elf32_Sym *    symbol )

Removes a given symbol. Parameters: melf  [in] The melf context. symTable  [in] The symbol table to operate on. symbol  [in] The symbol to remove. Returns: 1 on success.

void melf_symbolTableSynchronizeEntryList (  MELF *    melf, ELF_SPEC_HEADER *    sect )

Synchronizes the entry list for the given section. It is not recommended that this function be called directly. Parameters: melf  [in] The melf context. sect  [in] The section that is being operated on.
