| <a name="index-_003cgdb_003asal_003e"></a> |
| |
| <p>Access to symbol table data maintained by <small>GDB</small> on the inferior |
| is exposed to Guile via two objects: <code><gdb:sal></code> (symtab-and-line) and |
| <code><gdb:symtab></code>. Symbol table and line data for a frame is returned |
| from the <code>frame-find-sal</code> <code><gdb:frame></code> procedure. |
| See <a href="Frames-In-Guile.html#Frames-In-Guile">Frames In Guile</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p>For more information on <small>GDB</small>’s symbol table management, see |
| <a href="Symbols.html#Symbols">Examining the Symbol Table</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p>The following symtab-related procedures are provided by the |
| <code>(gdb)</code> module: |
| </p> |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-symtab_003f"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab?</strong> <em>object</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>Return <code>#t</code> if <var>object</var> is an object of type <code><gdb:symtab></code>. |
| Otherwise return <code>#f</code>. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-symtab_002dvalid_003f"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-valid?</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>Return <code>#t</code> if the <code><gdb:symtab></code> object is valid, |
| <code>#f</code> if not. A <code><gdb:symtab></code> object becomes invalid when |
| the symbol table it refers to no longer exists in <small>GDB</small>. |
| All other <code><gdb:symtab></code> procedures will throw an exception |
| if it is invalid at the time the procedure is called. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-symtab_002dfilename"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-filename</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt> |

| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-symtab_002dfullname"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-fullname</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt> |

| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-symtab_002dobjfile"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-objfile</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt> |

| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-symtab_002dglobal_002dblock"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-global-block</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt> |

| </p></dd></dl> |

| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-symtab_002dstatic_002dblock"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>symtab-static-block</strong> <em>symtab</em></dt> |

| <dd><p>Return <code>#t</code> if <var>sal</var> is valid, <code>#f</code> if not. |
| A <code><gdb:sal></code> object becomes invalid when the Symbol table object |
| it refers to no longer exists in <small>GDB</small>. All other |
| <code><gdb:sal></code> procedures will throw an exception if it is |
| invalid at the time the procedure is called. |
| </p></dd></dl> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><a name="index-sal_002dsymtab"></a>Scheme Procedure: <strong>sal-symtab</strong> <em>sal</em></dt> |
| <dd><p>Return the symbol table object (<code><gdb:symtab></code>) for <var>sal</var>. |

| <code>symtab</code> and <code>line</code> attributes of the returned <code><gdb:sal></code> |
| object will be <code>#f</code> and 0 respectively. |
