32 // This header file defines the class Elf_file which can be used to
33 // read useful data from an ELF file. The functions here are all
34 // templates which take a file interface object as a parameter. This
35 // type must have a subtype View. This type must support two methods:
36 // View view(off_t file_offset, off_t data_size)
37 // returns a View for the specified part of the file.
38 // void error(const char* printf_format, ...)
39 // prints an error message and does not return. The subtype View must
40 // support a method
41 // const unsigned char* data()
42 // which returns a pointer to a buffer containing the requested data.
43 // This general interface is used to read data from the file. Objects
44 // of type View will never survive longer than the elfcpp function.
46 // Some of these functions must return a reference to part of the
47 // file. To use these, the file interface must support a subtype
48 // Location:
49 // Location(off_t file_offset, off_t data_size)
50 // To use this in conjunction with the accessors types Shdr, etc., the
51 // file interface should support an overload of view:
52 // View view(Location)
53 // This permits writing
54 // elfcpp::Shdr shdr(file, ef.section_header(n));
