27 <<typedef bfd>>
29 A BFD has type <<bfd>>; objects of this type are the
30 cornerstone of any application using BFD. Using BFD
31 consists of making references though the BFD and to data in the BFD.
33 Here is the structure that defines the type <<bfd>>. It
34 contains the major data about the file and pointers
35 to the rest of the data.

659 SECTION
660 Error reporting
662 Most BFD functions return nonzero on success (check their
663 individual documentation for precise semantics). On an error,
664 they call <<bfd_set_error>> to set an error condition that callers
665 can check by calling <<bfd_get_error>>.
666 If that returns <<bfd_error_system_call>>, then check
667 <<errno>>.

888 single malloc'd buffer managed by libbfd, _bfd_error_buf.
889 Be aware that a call to this function frees the result of any
890 previous call. bfd_errmsg (bfd_error_on_input) also calls
891 this function.
