Expand description
gimli is a library for reading and writing the
DWARF debugging format.
See the read and write modules for examples and API documentation.
§Cargo Features
Cargo features that can be enabled with gimli:
-
std: Enabled by default. Use thestdlibrary. Disabling this feature allows usinggimliin embedded environments that do not have access tostd. Note that even whenstdis disabled,gimlistill requires an implementation of thealloccrate. -
read: Enabled by default. Enables thereadmodule. Use ofstdis optional. -
write: Enabled by default. Enables thewritemodule. Always uses thestdlibrary.

- Unit
Section Offset - An offset into the
.debug_infoor.debug_typessections. - Vendor
- Which vendor extensions to support.
Traits§
