NAME

stdump − Dump portions of a file containing symbolic information

SYNOPSIS

stdump [flags] file

FLAGS

−aPrints dense numbers. 

−bPrints external symbols. 

−cPrints local symbols. 

−dPrints procedures. 

−fPrints file descriptors. 

−gDumps auxiliary symbol information in hexadecimal. (Use in combination with −b or −c to have type information interpreted.) 

−hPrints line numbers. 

−iPrints relative file descriptors. 

−n number
Specifies index number of file to be dumped.  You can print the index numbers with the following command: stdump −f file.  You can use −n with any other option to get that option’s portion of the symbolic information for the specified file. 

If none of the flags are specified, the dump includes all of the items associated with the various flags. 

[Digital]  The DEC C++ compiler encodes type information in function, template, variable, and virtual table names  to enable type-safe linkages.  This encoding is called "name mangling." The following options can be used to instruct the nm command to print either the original name (that is, the demangled name), the mangled name, or both, by specifying one of the following flags.  By default, nm shows the demangled names only. 

−mangled_name_only
[Digital]  Prints only the mangled name.

−mangled_name_also
[Digital]  Prints both the mangled and the demangled names.

DESCRIPTION

The stdump tool dumps symbolic information from an object file, an executable file, or any other file produced by the compiler that contains this information. 

FILES

/usr/bin/stdumpExecutable file
