Given the header files and shared objects corresponding to two different shared
|
|
library versions, and a simple description of each of the shared libraries in
|
|
XML format, abi-compliance-checker searches for the following kinds of binary
|
|
compatibility problems:
|
|
|
|
--added/withdrawn interfaces (functions, global variables)
|
|
--changes to constants
|
|
--problems in data types:
|
|
--classes: added/withdrawn virtual functions (changes in layout of
|
|
virtual table), virtual function positions, virtual function
|
|
redefinitions
|
|
--structural data types: added/withdrawn members (changes in layout of
|
|
type structure), changes in members, size changes
|
|
--enumerations: member value changes
|
|
--interface problems:
|
|
--parameter and return type changes
|
|
--incorrect symbol versions
|
|
|
|
The checker then generates a report that assesses the risks of any potential
|
|
problems detected.
