uwx_release_symbol_cache(3X)											      uwx_release_symbol_cache(3X)

NAME

       uwx_release_symbol_cache() - free memory used by the symbol cache

SYNOPSIS


DESCRIPTION

       is  part  of  the  Unwind Express Library for Integrity systems; see uwx(3X).  releases all memory used by a symbol cache created by the or
       entry points.

       After calling this entry point, the application should take care to assign NULL to the symbol cache pointer prior to using the same pointer
       in subsequent calls to or

   Parameters
       env	      A pointer to an unwind environment object.

       symbol_cache   A pointer to the symbol cache.

NAME

       uwx_get_source_info() - return source information for current frame

SYNOPSIS


DESCRIPTION

       is  part of the Unwind Express Library for Integrity systems; see uwx(3X).  obtains source file and line number information for the current
       frame from the symbolic information stored in the ELF object file, if available.

       This entry point is provided for use immediately following a call to or For other situations, see uwx_find_source_info(3X).

   Parameters
       env	      A pointer to an unwind environment object.

       ifuncp	      Pointer to a variable of type char * where the inlined function name will be returned.  If NULL, the inlined  function  name
		      will not be returned.  If the IP (instruction pointer) of the current context is not in an inlined call or if symbolic debug
		      information is not available, a NULL pointer will be returned.

       srcfilep       Pointer to a variable of type char * where the source file name will be returned.  If NULL, the source file name will not be
		      returned.  If symbolic debug information is not available, a NULL pointer will be returned.

       linenump       Pointer  to  a variable of type int where the source line number will be returned.  If NULL, the source line number will not
		      be returned.  If symbolic debug information is not available, 0 will be returned.

       inline_contextp
		      Pointer to a variable of type int where the inline context identifier will be returned.  If NULL, the inline context identi-
		      fier  will  not be returned.  If the IP of the current context is not in an inlined call or if symbolic debug information is
		      not available, 0 will be returned.

       In all cases where a pointer to a string is returned, the string is allocated within the unwind environment, and the pointer is valid  only
       until the next call to either or

   Stepping through inlined calls
       If  returns  a non-zero inline context identifier, it indicates that the IP is located within an inline call.  If the application wishes to
       step through the chain of inlined calls, it can find the name of the inlined function through the ifuncp pointer, then  call  to  move  one
       step  up  the  chain  of  inlined  calls.   The	application may then call again to obtain the updated information.  This process should be
       repeated until the returned identifier is 0.

RETURN VALUE

       returns on success.  See uwx(3X) for error codes.
