- Subject: [libopcodes] Getting the list of supported architectures (even plugins...)
Hello,
I am trying to extract the list of the supported architectures from
libopcodes.
I think I already got the list of all the executable file formats
through bfd_target_list() (but still the plugins seems to not be there).
Then, I found the procedure bfd_arch_list() which seems to correspond to
the list of architectures. But, I can only get the basic ones and the
plugins are still not displayed (I just suppose it like that, correct me
if I'm wrong).
My problem is that I would like to be able to dynamically check if a
precise architecture (or a familly of architectures) is supported or not.
I took a look at the procedure display_info()/display_info_table() in
bucomm.c but they seems way to complex for what I really want.
Is there a simple way to extract all the capabilities of the current
library (including plugins) for the supported architectures of
libopcodes (and for the supported executable file formats from libbfd) ?
Regards
