+# `object`
+
+The `object` crate provides a unified interface to working with object files
+across platforms. It supports reading object files and executable files,
+and writing object 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
+* a higher level unified API for accessing common features of object files, such
+ as sections and symbols
+
+Supported file formats: ELF, Mach-O, Windows PE/COFF, Wasm, 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<dyn Error>> {
+ 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(())
+}
+```
