c188b0be 25 A BFD has type <<bfd>>; objects of this type are the
fcc41f68 26 cornerstone of any application using BFD. Using BFD
c188b0be 27 consists of making references though the BFD and to data in the BFD.

29 Here is the structure that defines the type <<bfd>>. It

515c4292 473
c188b0be
DM
474 The initial motivation for, and use of, this routine is not
475 so we can get the exact size of the object the BFD applies to, since
476 that might not be generally possible (archive members for example).
477 It would be ideal if someone could eventually modify
515c4292
ILT
478 it so that such results were guaranteed.
479
480 Instead, we want to ask questions like "is this NNN byte sized
481 object I'm about to try read from file offset YYY reasonable?"
c188b0be
DM
482 As as example of where we might do this, some object formats
483 use string tables for which the first <<sizeof(long)>> bytes of the
484 table contain the size of the table itself, including the size bytes.
515c4292
ILT
485 If an application tries to read what it thinks is one of these
486 string tables, without some way to validate the size, and for
487 some reason the size is wrong (byte swapping error, wrong location
c188b0be 488 for the string table, etc.), the only clue is likely to be a read
515c4292 489 error when it tries to read the table, or a "virtual memory
c188b0be 490 exhausted" error when it tries to allocate 15 bazillon bytes
515c4292
ILT
491 of space for the 15 bazillon byte table it is about to read.
492 This function at least allows us to answer the quesion, "is the

c188b0be 566 Convert, like <<strtoul>>, a numerical expression
fcc41f68 567 @var{string} into a <<bfd_vma>> integer, and return that integer.
c188b0be 568 (Though without as many bells and whistles as <<strtoul>>.)
fcc41f68 569 The expression is assumed to be unsigned (i.e., positive).
c188b0be 570 If given a @var{base}, it is used as the base for conversion.

571 A base of 0 causes the function to interpret the string
572 in hex if a leading "0x" or "0X" is found, otherwise
573 in octal if a leading zero is found, otherwise in decimal.
574
575 Overflow is not detected.
