25 File formats

27 A format is a BFD concept of high level file contents type. The
3fde5a36 28 formats supported by BFD are:
252b5132
RH
29
30 o <<bfd_object>>
31
32 The BFD may contain data, symbols, relocations and debug info.
33
34 o <<bfd_archive>>
35
36 The BFD contains other BFDs and an optional index.
37
38 o <<bfd_core>>
39
40 The BFD contains the result of an executable core dump.

55 bfd_check_format

57SYNOPSIS
ed781d5d 58 bfd_boolean bfd_check_format (bfd *abfd, bfd_format format);
252b5132
RH
59
60DESCRIPTION
61 Verify if the file attached to the BFD @var{abfd} is compatible
62 with the format @var{format} (i.e., one of <<bfd_object>>,
63 <<bfd_archive>> or <<bfd_core>>).
64
65 If the BFD has been set to a specific target before the
66 call, only the named target and format combination is
67 checked. If the target has not been set, or has been set to
68 <<default>>, then all the known target backends is
69 interrogated to determine a match. If the default target
70 matches, it is used. If not, exactly one target must recognize
71 the file, or an error results.
72
b34976b6 73 The function returns <<TRUE>> on success, otherwise <<FALSE>>
3fde5a36 74 with one of the following error codes:
252b5132
RH
75
76 o <<bfd_error_invalid_operation>> -
77 if <<format>> is not one of <<bfd_object>>, <<bfd_archive>> or
78 <<bfd_core>>.
79
80 o <<bfd_error_system_call>> -
81 if an error occured during a read - even some file mismatches
82 can cause bfd_error_system_calls.
83
84 o <<file_not_recognised>> -
85 none of the backends recognised the file format.
86
87 o <<bfd_error_file_ambiguously_recognized>> -
88 more than one backend recognised the file format.

530 is not open for writing, then an error occurs.
