CONTENTS

LIBRARY

DWARF Access Library (libdwarf, -ldwarf)

SYNOPSIS

#include <libdwarf.h>

int
dwarf_hasattr(Dwarf_Die die, Dwarf_Half attr, Dwarf_Bool *ret_bool, Dwarf_Error *err);

DESCRIPTION

Function dwarf_hasattr() tests whether the debugging information entry referenced in argument die contains the attribute named by argument attr. Legal values for argument attr are those denoted by the DW_AT_* constants in the DWARF specification.

If the named attribute is present in the debugging information entry, function dwarf_hasattr() returns a non-zero value in the location pointed to by argument ret_bool. If the named attribute is not present, a zero is written instead.

If argument err is not NULL, it will be used to return an error descriptor in case of an error.

RETURN VALUES

On success, function dwarf_hasattr() returns DW_DLV_OK. In case of an error, it returns DW_DLV_ERROR and sets argument err.

ERRORS

Function dwarf_hasattr() can fail with the following error:
[DW_DLE_ARGUMENT] Either of argument die or ret_bool was NULL.

Our grievance is not just against Unix itself, but against the cult of Unix zealots who defend and nurture it. They take the heat, disease, and pestilence as givens, and, as ancient shamans did, display their wounds, some self-inflicted, as proof of their power and wizardry. We aim, through bluntness and humor, to show them that they pray to a tin god, and that science, not religion, is the path to useful and friendly technology.
