Struct gimli::DebugTypes

pub struct DebugTypes<'input, Endian> where Endian: Endianity {
    // some fields omitted
}

The DebugTypes struct represents the DWARF type information found in the .debug_types section.

Methods

impl<'input, Endian> DebugTypes<'input, Endian> where Endian: Endianity

fn new(debug_types_section: &'input [u8]) -> DebugTypes<'input, Endian>

Construct a new DebugTypes instance from the data in the .debug_types section.

It is the caller's responsibility to read the .debug_types section and present it as a &[u8] slice. That means using some ELF loader on Linux, a Mach-O loader on OSX, etc.

use gimli::{DebugTypes, LittleEndian};

let debug_types = DebugTypes::<LittleEndian>::new(read_debug_types_section_somehow());

fn units(&self) -> TypeUnitHeadersIter<'input, Endian>

Iterate the type-units in this .debug_types section.

use gimli::{DebugTypes, LittleEndian};

let debug_types = DebugTypes::<LittleEndian>::new(read_debug_types_section_somehow());

for parse_result in debug_types.units() {
    let unit = parse_result.unwrap();
    println!("unit's length is {}", unit.unit_length());
}
