elf_getshdr(3E)

retrieve class-dependent section header

From the original Amiga UNIX 2.1 manual. Some things it mentions may not be in this release.

NAME

elf_getshdr: elf32_getshdr - retrieve class-dependent section header

SYNOPSIS

cc [flag ...] file ...  -lelf [library ...]

#include <libelf.h>

Elf32_Shdr *elf32_getshdr(Elf_Scn *scn);

DESCRIPTION

For a 32-bit class file, elf32_getshdr returns a pointer  to
a section header for the section descriptor scn.  Otherwise,
the file is not a 32-bit class file, scn  was  null,  or  an
error occurred; elf32_getshdr then returns null.  The header
includes the following members.
             Elf32_Word      sh_name;
             Elf32_Word      sh_type;
             Elf32_Word      sh_flags;
             Elf32_Addr      sh_addr;
             Elf32_Off       sh_offset;
             Elf32_Word      sh_size;
             Elf32_Word      sh_link;
             Elf32_Word      sh_info;
             Elf32_Word      sh_addralign;
             Elf32_Word      sh_entsize;
If the program is building a new file, it is responsible for
creating the file's ELF header before creating sections.
