It can also be used to find locations of functions from the current process.

README

README.md

Owee is an experimental library to work with DWARF format.

OCaml users might find the Owee_location module interesting.

Provided you:

  • use Linux,

  • on 64-bit x86 architecture,

  • generated debugging symbols,

  • compiled in native code,

  • no relocation happened and you're not using Dynlink

Then it gives you the location of the definition of an arbitrary functional value. Linking the library is enough, no change to the toolchain is required.

These restrictions can be relaxed, open issues for platform you'd find interesting to support & on which you can test the library.
