Implement DWARF parsing in Linux

Open codecat opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

This would add the ability to read symbols from processes with debug information on Linux through LinuxProcessHandle::GetSymbolName and LinuxProcessHandle::GetSymbolAddress.

Depending on how complex this is, might need another dependency (such as libelfin which would probably also replace the ELFIO dependency) or we'd have to implement parsing manually based on the spec, if it's simple enough.
