25 A BFD is has type <<bfd>>; objects of this type are the
26 cornerstone of any application using <<libbfd>>. References
27 though the BFD and to data in the BFD give the entire BFD
28 functionality.

93351e91 30 Here is the struct used to define the type <<bfd>>. This
d3e667e8 31 contains the major data about the file, and contains pointers

525SYNOPSIS
526 long bfd_get_size(bfd *);
527
528DESCRIPTION
529 Return file size (as read from file system) for the file
530 associated with a bfd.
531
532 Note that the initial motivation for, and use of, this routine is not
533 so we can get the exact size of the object the bfd applies to, since
534 that might not be generally possible (archive members for example?).
535 Although it would be ideal if someone could eventually modify
536 it so that such results were guaranteed.
537
538 Instead, we want to ask questions like "is this NNN byte sized
539 object I'm about to try read from file offset YYY reasonable?"
540 As as example of where we might want to do this, some object formats
541 use string tables for which the first sizeof(long) bytes of the table
542 contain the size of the table itself, including the size bytes.
543 If an application tries to read what it thinks is one of these
544 string tables, without some way to validate the size, and for
545 some reason the size is wrong (byte swapping error, wrong location
546 for the string table, etc), the only clue is likely to be a read
547 error when it tries to read the table, or a "virtual memory
548 exhausted" error when it tries to allocated 15 bazillon bytes
549 of space for the 15 bazillon byte table it is about to read.
550 This function at least allows us to answer the quesion, "is the
551 size reasonable?".
