UilDumpSymbolTable
NAME
UilDumpSymbolTable - Dumps the contents of a named UIL
symbol table to standard output
SYNOPSIS
#include <uil/UilDef.h>
void UilDumpSymbolTable (root_ptr)
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
.
