#!/bin/bash # This script is needed in the process of generating exported # symbols list out of map files on Mac OS X (see also #i69351#) # The magic generating the regular expression from the temporary # mapfile containing only star and question mark symbols # # The script has to be called as follows: # nm -gx .o | addsym-macosx.sh # See tg_shl.mk for an example of how to use the script # # Replace every * with .* and every ? with . to get awk expression # Put ^ at the beginning of every expression # Put $ at the beginning of every expression # Connect them all on one line, separated by | # Remove | at the end of this regular expression because the last end # of line was also replaced by | cat $1 | sed 's#*#.*#g s#?#.#g s#^#^# s#$#$#' | tr '\n' '|' | sed "s#|\$##" >$2 # Please note that the awk expression expects to get the output of 'nm -gx'! # The fields in the nm -gx output are apparently (see # /usr/include/mach-o/nlist.h>): # xxxxxxxx xx xx xxxx xxxxxxxx symbol # ! ! ! ! n_value # ! ! ! n_desc # ! ! n_sect # ! n_type # n_strx # Original comment: # On Panther we have to filter out symbols with a value "1f" otherwise external # symbols will erroneously be added to the generated export symbols list file. # # Of course it isn't actually the "value" (n_value) of the symbol that # is meant, but (as is seen from the use of $2) the n_type . # # Now, what does a n_type of 1f actually mean? The N_PEXT bit (0x10) # is on and the N_EXT (0x01) bit is on. It is what in Mach-O # documentation is called "private external". This includes symbols # produced by using -fvisibility=hidden.
