Expand description
gimli is a library for reading and writing the
DWARF debugging format.
See the read and write modules for examples and API documentation.
Cargo Features
Cargo features that can be enabled with gimli:
-
std: Enabled by default. Use thestdlibrary. Disabling this feature allows usinggimliin embedded environments that do not have access tostd. Note that even whenstdis disabled,gimlistill requires an implementation of thealloccrate. -
read: Enabled by default. Enables thereadmodule. Use ofstdis optional. -
write: Enabled by default. Enables thewritemodule. Always uses thestdlibrary.

Enums
The “type” of file with DWARF debugging information. This determines, among other things, which files DWARF sections should be loaded from.
Whether the format of a compilation unit is 32- or 64-bit.
Byte order that is selectable at runtime.
An identifier for a DWARF section.
An offset into the .debug_info or .debug_types sections.
Traits
An unsafe marker trait for types where clones deref to the same address. This has all the requirements of StableDeref, and additionally requires that after calling clone(), both the old and new value deref to the same address. For example, Rc and Arc implement CloneStableDeref, but Box and Vec do not.
A trait describing the endianity of some buffer.
An unsafe marker trait for types that deref to a stable address, even when moved. For example, this is implemented by Box, Vec, Rc, Arc and String, among others. Even when a Box is moved, the underlying storage remains at a fixed location.
Type Definitions
The native endianity for the target platform.
