NAME¶
UilDumpSymbolTable — Dumps the contents of a named UIL symbol
table to standard output "UilDumpSymbolTable" "uil
functions" "UilDumpSymbolTable"
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <uil/UilDef.h>
void UilDumpSymbolTable(
sym_entry_type *root_ptr);
DESCRIPTION¶
The
UilDumpSymbolTable function dumps the contents of a UIL symbol table
pointer to standard output.
- root_ptr
- Specifies a pointer to the the symbol table root entry. This value can be
taken from the parse_tree_root part of the
Uil_compile_desc_type data structure returned by Uil.
By following the link from the root entry, you can traverse the entire parse
tree. Symbol table entries are in the following format:
hex.address symbol.type symbol.data
prev.source.position source.position modification.record
where:
- hex.address
- Specifies the hexadecimal address of this entry in the symbol table.
- symbol.type
- Specifies the type of this symbol table entry. Some possible types are
root, module, value, procedure, and
widget.
- symbol.data
- Specifies data for the symbol table entry. The data varies with the type
of the entry. Often it contains pointers to other symbol table entries, or
the actual data for the data type.
- prev.source.position
- Specifies the end point in the source code for the previous source
item.
- source.position
- Specifies the range of positions in the source code for this symbol.
The exact data structures for each symbol type are defined in the include file
UilSymDef.h. Note that this file is automatically included when an
application includes the file
UilDef.h.
