149 * @brief Demangling routine.
150 * ABI-mandated entry point in the C++ runtime library for demangling.
152 * @param __mangled_name A NUL-terminated character string
153 * containing the name to be demangled.
155 * @param __output_buffer A region of memory, allocated with
156 * malloc, of @a *__length bytes, into which the demangled name is
157 * stored. If @a __output_buffer is not long enough, it is
158 * expanded using realloc. @a __output_buffer may instead be NULL;
159 * in that case, the demangled name is placed in a region of memory
160 * allocated with malloc.
162 * @param __length If @a __length is non-NULL, the length of the
163 * buffer containing the demangled name is placed in @a *__length.
165 * @param __status @a *__status is set to one of the following values:
166 * 0: The demangling operation succeeded.
167 * -1: A memory allocation failiure occurred.
168 * -2: @a mangled_name is not a valid name under the C++ ABI mangling rules.
169 * -3: One of the arguments is invalid.
171 * @return A pointer to the start of the NUL-terminated demangled
172 * name, or NULL if the demangling fails. The caller is
173 * responsible for deallocating this memory using @c free.
175 * The demangling is performed using the C++ ABI mangling rules,
176 * with GNU extensions. For example, this function is used in
177 * __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler.
179 * See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/bk01pt12ch39.html
180 * for other examples of use.
182 * @note The same demangling functionality is available via
183 * libiberty (@c <libiberty/demangle.h> and @c libiberty.a) in GCC
184 * 3.1 and later, but that requires explicit installation (@c
185 * --enable-install-libiberty) and uses a different API, although
186 * the ABI is unchanged.
