DWARF_GET_ABBREV_CODE(3)

✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, welcome to the DWARF_GET_ABBREV_CODE(3) manual page from the Library Functions Manual 💖 today’s main character is dwarf_get_abbrev_code() — the function that retrieves the abbreviation code for an abbreviation. Slay.

🦋 LIBRARY 🦋

It’s giving DWARF Access Library energy: DWARF Access Library (libdwarf, -ldwarf). That’s the linked-up squad, no cap.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <libdwarf.h>

int
dwarf_get_abbrev_code(Dwarf_Abbrev abbrev, Dwarf_Unsigned *ret,
    Dwarf_Error *err);

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So, dwarf_get_abbrev_code() literally retrieves the abbreviation code for the abbreviation entry descriptor referenced by argument abbrev. Iconic behavior, honestly.

Argument ret should point to a location which will hold the returned abbreviation code. That’s where the code goes, bestie — point it somewhere valid and it’ll hold the result.

If argument err is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an error. If you don’t care about the error details, pass NULL; if you do, it’s got you. 🫶

🔥 RETURN VALUES 🔥

Function dwarf_get_abbrev_code() returns DW_DLV_OK when it succeeds. In case of an error, it returns DW_DLV_ERROR and sets the argument err. That’s the whole vibe check: success or error, periodt.

😭 ERRORS 😭

Function dwarf_get_abbrev_code() can fail with:

• [DW_DLE_ARGUMENT] — either of arguments abbrev or ret was NULL. Yeah, that’s the error era, bestie — no NULL shenanigans allowed.
