get the base offset for an object file
Synopsis
cc [flag . . . ] file . . . -lelf [library] . . .
#include <libelf.h>
off_t elf_getbase(Elf elf);
Description
elf_getbase
returns the file offset of the
first byte of the file or archive member
associated with
elf,
if it is known or obtainable, and -1 otherwise.
A null
elf
is allowed, to simplify error handling; the return
value in this case is -1.
The base offset of an archive member is the beginning
of the member's information,
not the beginning of the archive member header.
