virtual bool LoaderELF::can_handle

(

SgAsmGenericHeader *

header

)

[inline, virtual]

Indicates whether a loader can handle a specific type of file.

Returns true if the loader is able to handle the specified file header. For instance, the LoaderELFObj loader would return true if the header is for an ELF object file. The generic Loader advertises that it can handle all types of file headers, so subclasses should definitely override this.

Reimplemented from Loader.

Reimplemented in LoaderELFObj.

SgAsmGenericSectionPtrList LoaderELF::order_sections

(

const SgAsmGenericSectionPtrList &

)

[virtual]

Sort sections for mapping.

Given a list of sections, sort the sections according to the order they should contribute to the mapping. For instance, ELF Segments should contribute to the mapping before ELF Sections.

This method can also be used as a first-line for excluding sections that meet certain criteria. It is called by create_map() before sections are passed through the Selector object. The default implementation excludes any section that was synthesized by the binary parser, keeping only those that were created due to the parser encountering a description of the section in some kind of table.

Reimplemented from Loader.
