DWARF_SRCLINES(3) Library Functions Manual DWARF_SRCLINES(3) NAME dwarf_srclines - retrieve line number information for a debugging information entry LIBRARY DWARF Access Library (libdwarf, -ldwarf) SYNOPSIS #include <libdwarf.h> int dwarf_srclines(Dwarf_Die die, Dwarf_Line **lines, Dwarf_Signed *nlines, Dwarf_Error *err); DESCRIPTION Function dwarf_srclines() returns line number information associated with a compilation unit. Line number information is returned as an array of Dwarf_Line descriptors. Argument die should reference a DWARF debugging information entry descriptor with line number information, see dwarf(3). Argument lines should point to a location that will hold a pointer to the returned array of Dwarf_Line descriptors. Argument nlines should point to a location that will hold the number of descriptors returned. If argument err is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an error. The returned Dwarf_Line descriptors may be passed to the other line number functions in the API set to retrieve specific information about each source line. Memory Management The memory area used for the array of Dwarf_Line descriptors returned in argument lines is owned by the DWARF Access Library (libdwarf, -ldwarf). The application should not attempt to free this pointer. Portable code should instead use dwarf_srclines_dealloc() to indicate that the memory may be freed. RETURN VALUES Function dwarf_srclines() returns DW_DLV_OK when it succeeds. In case of an error, it returns DW_DLV_ERROR and sets the argument err. EXAMPLES To obtain an array of Dwarf_Line descriptors and to retrieve the source file, line number, and virtual address associated with each descriptor: int n; Dwarf_Die die; Dwarf_Error de; char *filename; Dwarf_Line *lines; Dwarf_Signed nlines; Dwarf_Addr lineaddr; Dwarf_Unsigned lineno; /* variable "die" should reference a DIE for a compilation unit */ if (dwarf_srclines(die, &lines, &nlines, &de) != DW_DLV_OK) errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_srclines: %s", dwarf_errmsg(de)); for (n = 0; n < nlines; n++) { /* Retrieve the file name for this descriptor. */ if (dwarf_linesrc(lines[n], &filename, &de)) errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_linesrc: %s", dwarf_errmsg(de)); /* Retrieve the line number in the source file. */ if (dwarf_lineno(lines[n], &lineno, &de)) errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_lineno: %s", dwarf_errmsg(de)); /* Retrieve the virtual address for this line. */ if (dwarf_lineaddr(lines[n], &lineaddr, &de)) errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_lineaddr: %s", dwarf_errmsg(de)); } ERRORS Function dwarf_srclines() can fail with: [DW_DLE_ARGUMENT] One of the arguments die, lines or nlines was NULL. [DW_DLE_NO_ENTRY] The compilation unit referenced by argument die does not have associated line number information. [DW_DLE_MEMORY] An out of memory condition was encountered during the execution of this function.
