It supports reading relocatable object files and executable files, +and writing COFF/ELF/Mach-O/XCOFF relocatable object files and ELF/PE executable files. + +For reading files, it provides multiple levels of support: + +* raw struct definitions suitable for zero copy access +* low level APIs for accessing the raw structs ([example](crates/examples/src/readobj/)) +* a higher level unified API for accessing common features of object files, such + as sections and symbols ([example](crates/examples/src/objdump.rs)) + +Supported file formats: ELF, Mach-O, Windows PE/COFF, Wasm, XCOFF, and Unix archive. + +## Example for unified read API +```rust +use object::{Object, ObjectSection}; +use std::error::Error; +use std::fs; + +/// Reads a file and displays the content of the ".boot" section. +fn main() -> Result<(), Box> { + let bin_data = fs::read("./multiboot2-binary.elf")?; + let obj_file = object::File::parse(&*bin_data)?; + if let Some(section) = obj_file.section_by_name(".boot") { + println!("{:#x?}", section.data()?); + } else { + eprintln!("section not available"); + } + Ok(()) +} +``` + +See [`crates/examples`](crates/examples) for more examples. + +## Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV) + +Changes to MSRV are considered breaking changes. We are conservative about changing the MSRV, +but sometimes are required to due to dependencies.
