<h4 class="subsection">2.12.1 bfd_target</h4>
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a
target. It includes things like its byte order, name, and which
routines to call to do various operations.
</p>
<p>Every BFD points to a target structure with its <code>xvec</code>
member.
</p>
<p>The macros below are used to dispatch to functions through the
<code>bfd_target</code> vector. They are used in a number of macros further
down in <samp>bfd.h</samp>, and are also used when calling various
routines by hand inside the BFD implementation. The <var>arglist</var>
argument must be parenthesized; it contains all the arguments
to the called function.
</p>
<p>They make the documentation (more) unpleasant to read, so if
someone wants to fix this and not break the above, please do.
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
((*((bfd)-&gt;xvec-&gt;message)) arglist)
#ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
#undef BFD_SEND
#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
(((bfd) &amp;&amp; (bfd)-&gt;xvec &amp;&amp; (bfd)-&gt;xvec-&gt;message) ? \
((*((bfd)-&gt;xvec-&gt;message)) arglist) : \
(bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
#endif
</pre></div>
<p>For operations which index on the BFD format:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
(((bfd)-&gt;xvec-&gt;message[(int) ((bfd)-&gt;format)]) arglist)
#ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
#undef BFD_SEND_FMT
#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
(((bfd) &amp;&amp; (bfd)-&gt;xvec &amp;&amp; (bfd)-&gt;xvec-&gt;message) ? \
(((bfd)-&gt;xvec-&gt;message[(int) ((bfd)-&gt;format)]) arglist) : \
(bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
#endif
</pre></div>
<p>This is the structure which defines the type of BFD this is. The
<code>xvec</code> member of the struct <code>bfd</code> itself points here. Each
module that implements access to a different target under BFD,
defines one of these.
</p>
<p>FIXME, these names should be rationalised with the names of
the entry points which call them. Too bad we can&rsquo;t have one
macro to define them both!

</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">const bfd_target *bfd_find_target (const char *target_name, bfd *abfd);
</pre></div>
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
Return a pointer to the transfer vector for the object target
named <var>target_name</var>. If <var>target_name</var> is <code>NULL</code>,
choose the one in the environment variable <code>GNUTARGET</code>; if
that is null or not defined, then choose the first entry in the
target list. Passing in the string &quot;default&quot; or setting the
environment variable to &quot;default&quot; will cause the first entry in
the target list to be returned, and &quot;target_defaulted&quot; will be
set in the BFD if <var>abfd</var> isn&rsquo;t <code>NULL</code>. This causes
<code>bfd_check_format</code> to loop over all the targets to find the
one that matches the file being read.

<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
Return a pointer to the transfer vector for the object target
named <var>target_name</var>. If <var>target_name</var> is <code>NULL</code>,
choose the one in the environment variable <code>GNUTARGET</code>; if

one that matches the file being read.
If <var>is_bigendian</var> is not <code>NULL</code>, then set this value to target&rsquo;s
endian mode. True for big-endian, FALSE for little-endian or for
invalid target.
If <var>underscoring</var> is not <code>NULL</code>, then set this value to target&rsquo;s
underscoring mode. Zero for none-underscoring, -1 for invalid target,
else the value of target vector&rsquo;s symbol underscoring.
If <var>def_target_arch</var> is not <code>NULL</code>, then set it to the architecture
string specified by the target_name.
