24 /* This module provides definitions used for creating and adding to
25 the symbol table. These routines are called from various symbol-
26 file-reading routines. This file holds the legacy API, which
27 relies on a global variable to work properly. New or maintained
28 symbol readers should use the builder API in buildsym.h.
30 The basic way this module is used is as follows:
32 scoped_free_pendings free_pending;
33 cust = start_compunit_symtab (...);
34 ... read debug info ...
35 cust = end_compunit_symtab (...);
37 The compunit symtab pointer ("cust") is returned from both
38 start_compunit_symtab and end_compunit_symtab to simplify the debug info readers.
40 dbxread.c and xcoffread.c use another variation:
42 scoped_free_pendings free_pending;
43 cust = start_compunit_symtab (...);
44 ... read debug info ...
45 cust = end_compunit_symtab (...);
46 ... start_compunit_symtab + read + end_compunit_symtab repeated ...
