HELPLIB.HLB  —  ANALYZE  /OBJECT  Qualifiers  /SECTIONS
       /SECTIONS [=(keyword[,...])] (I64 only)

    Selects individual program sections or section types to display.

                                   NOTE

       This qualifier and its keywords can only be used to form an
       inclusion list of sections to be displayed. This qualifier
       is not negatable and cannot be used to form an exclusion
       list. If no values are specified, the default keyword is
       HEADERS.

    The keywords are as follows:

    Keyword            Description

    ALL                Displays a detailed analysis of every section
                       in the module. Note that this keyword can
                       generate a large amount of output.
    CODE               Displays all sections of type SHT_PROGBITS
                       where the executable flag is set (SHDR$M_
                       SHF_EXECINSTR in the section header). The
                       section data will be displayed as machine
                       instructions.
    DEBUG              Analyzes and displays sections consisting
    [=(suffix[,...])]  of debug formatted debug information. In
                       addition, you can use a list of debug section
                       name suffixes to selectively format DEBUG
                       information. The suffix can be specified as
                       follows:

                       o  ABBREV-Formats DEBUG abbreviations

                       o  ARANGES-Formats DEBUG address lookup tables

                       o  FRAME-Formats DEBUG frame descriptors for
                          unwinding

                       o  INFO-Formats DEBUG symbols

                       o  LINE-Formats DEBUG source line info

                       o  PUBNAMES-Formats DEBUG name lookup tables

                       o  PUBTYPES-Formats DEBUG type lookup tables

    EXTENSIONS         Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       IA64_EXT. The data is displayed in hexadecimal
                       format.
    GROUP              Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       GROUP. Sections of this type consist of a list
                       of the section numbers of sections belonging
                       to that group.
    HEADERS            The default keyword. Displays the ELF header
                       and the section header details.
    LINKAGES           Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       VMS_LINKAGES.The data is displayed as a list
                       of linkage descriptors.
    NOBITS             Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       NOBITS. There is no module data associated
                       with sections of this type.
    NOTE               Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       NOTE. The data for this section is displayed
                       as a list of formatted OpenVMS note entries.
    NULL               Displays all sections of type PT_NULL. No a
                       data will be displayed for segments of this
                       type.
    NUMBERS= (number   Displays individual sections, as follows:
    [,...])
                       o  The selected sections will have a detailed
                          display of their header and their contents.
                          An informational message is displayed for
                          section numbers that do not exist in the
                          module.

                       o  One or more numeric values may be
                          specified.

                       o  Section numbers may be specified in
                          decimal, octal (using the %O prefix), or
                          hexadecimal (using the %X prefix).

    PROGBITS           Displays all sections of type SHT_PROGBITS,
                       except unwind sections.

                       Formatting for the sections of type SHT_
                       PROGBITS depends on the EXECINSTR flag
                       (SHDR$M_SHF_EXECINSTR) in its section header.
                       If this bit set, the section data will be
                       displayed as machine instructions. Otherwise
                       it will be displayed as hexadecimal data.

                       Unwind sections will be displayed if
                       /SECTIONS=UNWIND is specified.
    RELOCATIONS        Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       RELA. The data for this section is displayed
                       as table of relocation entries.
    STRTAB             Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       STRTAB. The data for this section is displayed
                       as a string table.
    SYMTAB             Displays sections of type SHT_SYMTAB. The
                       data for this section is displayed as a symbol
                       table.
    TRACE              Analyzes and displays sections consisting of
    [=(suffix[,...])]  traceback information.

                       In addition, you can use a list of trace
                       section name suffixes to selectively format
                       TRACE information. The trace section names,
                       which appear as ".trace_suffix", can be
                       viewed in the summary table. The suffix can be
                       specified as shown below. In addition, because
                       there is one common debug and traceback
                       section, ".debug_line", the suffix "line"
                       can be specified as shown below as well:

                       o  ABBREV-Formats TRACE abbreviations

                       o  ARANGES-Formats TRACE address lookup tables

                       o  INFO-Formats TRACE symbols

                       o  LINE-Formats TRACE source line info

    UNWIND             Analyzes and displays sections of type SHT_
                       IA64_UNWIND. Each section of this type has an
                       associated Unwind Information section of type
                       SHT_PROGBITS. This associated section is also
                       displayed.
