<a name="index-_003cgdb_003asal_003e"></a>
|
|
<p>Access to symbol table data maintained by <small>GDB</small> on the inferior
|
is exposed to Guile via two objects: <code><gdb:sal></code> (symtab-and-line) and
|
<code><gdb:symtab></code>. Symbol table and line data for a frame is returned
|
from the <code>frame-find-sal</code> <code><gdb:frame></code> procedure.
|
See <a href="Frames-In-Guile.html#Frames-In-Guile">Frames In Guile</a>.
|
</p>
|
<p>For more information on <small>GDB</small>’s symbol table management, see
|
<a href="Symbols.html#Symbols">Examining the Symbol Table</a>.
|
</p>
|
<p>The following symtab-related procedures are provided by the
|
<code>(gdb)</code> module:
|
</p>
|
<dl>
|
<dt><a name="index-symtab_003f"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab?</strong> <em>object</em></dt>
|
<dd><p>Return <code>#t</code> if <var>object</var> is an object of type <code><gdb:symtab></code>.
|
Otherwise return <code>#f</code>.
|
</p></dd></dl>
|
|
<dl>
|
<dt><a name="index-symtab_002dvalid_003f"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-valid?</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt>
|
<dd><p>Return <code>#t</code> if the <code><gdb:symtab></code> object is valid,
|
<code>#f</code> if not. A <code><gdb:symtab></code> object becomes invalid when
|
the symbol table it refers to no longer exists in <small>GDB</small>.
|
All other <code><gdb:symtab></code> procedures will throw an exception
|
if it is invalid at the time the procedure is called.
|
</p></dd></dl>
|

<dl>

<dt><a name="index-symtab_002dfilename"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-filename</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt>

<dl>

<dt><a name="index-symtab_002dfullname"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-fullname</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt>

<dt><a name="index-symtab_002dglobal_002dblock"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-global-block</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt>

See <a href="Blocks-In-Guile.html#Blocks-In-Guile">Blocks In Guile</a>.

<dl>

<dt><a name="index-symtab_002dstatic_002dblock"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-static-block</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt>

<p>The following symtab-and-line-related procedures are provided by the

</p>

<dd><p>Return <code>#t</code> if <var>sal</var> is valid, <code>#f</code> if not.

A <code><gdb:sal></code> object becomes invalid when the Symbol table object
|
it refers to no longer exists in <small>GDB</small>. All other
|
<code><gdb:sal></code> procedures will throw an exception if it is

invalid at the time the procedure is called.

<dl>

<dt><a name="index-sal_002dsymtab"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>sal-symtab</strong> <em>sal</em></dt>

If an invalid value of <var>pc</var> is passed as an argument, then the

<code>symtab</code> and <code>line</code> attributes of the returned <code><gdb:sal></code>

object will be <code>#f</code> and 0 respectively.
