Struct backtrace::Symbol

pub struct Symbol { /* fields omitted */ }

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (rustc_private)

this crate is being loaded from the sysroot, an unstable location; did you mean to load this crate from crates.io via Cargo.toml instead?

A trait representing the resolution of a symbol in a file.

This trait is yielded as a trait object to the closure given to the backtrace::resolve function, and it is virtually dispatched as it's unknown which implementation is behind it.

A symbol can give contextual information about a function, for example the name, filename, line number, precise address, etc. Not all information is always available in a symbol, however, so all methods return an Option.

Methods

impl Symbol

pub fn name(&self) -> Option<SymbolName>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (rustc_private)

this crate is being loaded from the sysroot, an unstable location; did you mean to load this crate from crates.io via Cargo.toml instead?

Returns the name of this function.

The returned structure can be used to query various properties about the symbol name:

• The Display implementation will print out the demangled symbol.
• The raw str value of the symbol can be accessed (if it's valid utf-8).
• The raw bytes for the symbol name can be accessed.

pub fn addr(&self) -> Option<*mut c_void>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (rustc_private)

this crate is being loaded from the sysroot, an unstable location; did you mean to load this crate from crates.io via Cargo.toml instead?

Returns the starting address of this function.

pub fn filename(&self) -> Option<&Path>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (rustc_private)

this crate is being loaded from the sysroot, an unstable location; did you mean to load this crate from crates.io via Cargo.toml instead?

Returns the file name where this function was defined.

This is currently only available when libbacktrace is being used (e.g. unix platforms other than OSX) and when a binary is compiled with debuginfo. If neither of these conditions is met then this will likely return None.

pub fn lineno(&self) -> Option<u32>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (rustc_private)

this crate is being loaded from the sysroot, an unstable location; did you mean to load this crate from crates.io via Cargo.toml instead?

Returns the line number for where this symbol is currently executing.

This return value is typically Some if filename returns Some, and is consequently subject to similar caveats.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for Symbol

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.
