27 1.1 skrll A format is a BFD concept of high level file contents type. The
28 1.1 skrll formats supported by BFD are:
29 1.1 skrll
30 1.1 skrll o <<bfd_object>>
31 1.1 skrll
32 1.1 skrll The BFD may contain data, symbols, relocations and debug info.
33 1.1 skrll
34 1.1 skrll o <<bfd_archive>>
35 1.1 skrll
36 1.1 skrll The BFD contains other BFDs and an optional index.
37 1.1 skrll
38 1.1 skrll o <<bfd_core>>
39 1.1 skrll
40 1.1 skrll The BFD contains the result of an executable core dump.

57 1.1 skrll SYNOPSIS
58 1.1 skrll bfd_boolean bfd_check_format (bfd *abfd, bfd_format format);
59 1.1 skrll
60 1.1 skrll DESCRIPTION
61 1.1 skrll Verify if the file attached to the BFD @var{abfd} is compatible
62 1.1 skrll with the format @var{format} (i.e., one of <<bfd_object>>,
63 1.1 skrll <<bfd_archive>> or <<bfd_core>>).
64 1.1 skrll
65 1.1 skrll If the BFD has been set to a specific target before the
66 1.1 skrll call, only the named target and format combination is
67 1.1 skrll checked. If the target has not been set, or has been set to
68 1.1 skrll <<default>>, then all the known target backends is
69 1.1 skrll interrogated to determine a match. If the default target
70 1.1 skrll matches, it is used. If not, exactly one target must recognize
71 1.1 skrll the file, or an error results.
72 1.1 skrll
73 1.1 skrll The function returns <<TRUE>> on success, otherwise <<FALSE>>
74 1.1 skrll with one of the following error codes:
75 1.1 skrll
76 1.1 skrll o <<bfd_error_invalid_operation>> -
77 1.1 skrll if <<format>> is not one of <<bfd_object>>, <<bfd_archive>> or
78 1.1 skrll <<bfd_core>>.
79 1.1 skrll
80 1.1 skrll o <<bfd_error_system_call>> -
81 1.1 skrll if an error occured during a read - even some file mismatches
82 1.1 skrll can cause bfd_error_system_calls.
83 1.1 skrll
84 1.1 skrll o <<file_not_recognised>> -
85 1.1 skrll none of the backends recognised the file format.
86 1.1 skrll
87 1.1 skrll o <<bfd_error_file_ambiguously_recognized>> -
88 1.1 skrll more than one backend recognised the file format.
