     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

     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

     82          1.1     skrll 	can cause bfd_error_system_calls.
     83          1.1     skrll 
     84          1.1     skrll 	o <<file_not_recognised>> -
