NAME
nlist_ia: nlist, nlist64 - structure formats for Integrity systems
SYNOPSIS
Remarks
The exact content of the structure defined below can be best found by examining It varies somewhat between various HP-UX implementations.
This manpage describes on Integrity systems. For on PA-RISC systems, see nlist_pa(4).
DESCRIPTION
and can be used to extract information from the symbol table in an object file (see nlist(3C)). They are basically the same tool, and both
can process SOM and Elf files. Since symbol tables are machine dependent (as defined in each implementation's copy of a header file, is
defined to encapsulate the differences.
The nlist function, either or when used with the corresponding nlist structure, can be used to extract certain information about selected
symbols in the symbol table. The data associated with each symbol is machine specific, thus only the name and position of the field in the
function is standardized by HP-UX. The rest of the structure includes at least the value and type of the symbol. The names and meanings
of all fields not standardized will change no more than necessary.
The structure is the same as the structure and is used for source compatibility purposes.
