SECTION

  File formats

  A format is a BFD concept of high level file contents type. The

  formats supported by BFD are:

  o <<bfd_object>>

  The BFD may contain data, symbols, relocations and debug info.

  o <<bfd_archive>>

  The BFD contains other BFDs and an optional index.

  o <<bfd_core>>

  The BFD contains the result of an executable core dump.

FUNCTION

  bfd_check_format

SYNOPSIS

  bool bfd_check_format (bfd *abfd, bfd_format format);

DESCRIPTION

  Verify if the file attached to the BFD @var{abfd} is compatible

  with the format @var{format} (i.e., one of <<bfd_object>>,

  <<bfd_archive>> or <<bfd_core>>).

  If the BFD has been set to a specific target before the

  call, only the named target and format combination is

  checked. If the target has not been set, or has been set to

  <<default>>, then all the known target backends is

  interrogated to determine a match.  If the default target

  matches, it is used.  If not, exactly one target must recognize

  the file, or an error results.

  The function returns <<TRUE>> on success, otherwise <<FALSE>>

  with one of the following error codes:

  o <<bfd_error_invalid_operation>> -

  if <<format>> is not one of <<bfd_object>>, <<bfd_archive>> or

  <<bfd_core>>.

  o <<bfd_error_system_call>> -

  if an error occured during a read - even some file mismatches

  can cause bfd_error_system_calls.

  o <<file_not_recognised>> -

  none of the backends recognised the file format.

  o <<bfd_error_file_ambiguously_recognized>> -

  more than one backend recognised the file format.

  When calling bfd_check_format (or bfd_check_format_matches),

  any underlying file descriptor will be kept open for the

  duration of the call.  This is done to avoid races when

  another thread calls bfd_cache_close_all.  In this scenario,

  the thread calling bfd_check_format must call bfd_cache_close

  itself.
