Detailed Description

Exposes an executable image's debugging symbol data.

This class exposes an executable image's debugging symbols. This is a "view" in that is it backed by a memory-mapped file. All data extracted from the members is actually read from the module, and not stored here.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

psystem::symbol_view::symbol_view ( psystem::address_t const  symbol_start, char const *  string_start, psystem::address_t const  module_base  )

explicitnoexcept

Construct the view into the debug symbol table.

Parameters

[in]	symbol_start	The address that points to the beginning of the symbol table.
[in]	string_start	The address that points to the beginning of the string table. The beginning of the string table marks the end of the debug symbol table in COFF executable images. This address has a double-purpose.
[in]	module_base	Offset from which all function / symbol addresses will be located.

Member Function Documentation

image_symbol_iterator psystem::symbol_view::begin

(

)

const

Acquire an iterator to the first debugging symbol in the view.

Returns

An iterator representing the first visible debugging symbol.

image_symbol_iterator psystem::symbol_view::end

(

)

const

Acquire an iterator just past the final debugging symbol in the view.

Returns

An iterator representing the end of the visible debugging symbols.

Member Data Documentation

char const* psystem::symbol_view::m_string_start

The address that points to the beginning of the string table.

The beginning of the string table marks the end of the debug symbol table in COFF executable images. This address has a double-purpose.
