All C++ function names are encoded into a -low-level assembly label (this process is known as -.I mangling\c -). The -.B @PROGRAM@ -program does the inverse mapping: it decodes (\fIdemangles\fR) -low-level names into user-level names so that the linker can keep -these overloaded functions from clashing. -.PP -Every alphanumeric word (consisting of letters, digits, underscores, -dollars, or periods) seen in the input is a potential label. If the -label decodes into a C++ name, the C++ name replaces the low-level -name in the output. -.PP -You can use -.B @PROGRAM@ -to decipher individual symbols by specifying these symbols on the -command line. -.PP -If no -.B symbol -arguments are given, -.B @PROGRAM@ -reads symbol names from the standard input and writes the demangled -names to the standard output. All results are printed on the standard -output. -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B \-_ -.TP -.B \-\-strip\-underscores -On some systems, both the C and C++ compilers put an -underscore in front of every name. For example, the C name -.B foo -gets the low-level name -.BR _foo . -This option removes the leading underscore. - -.TP -.B "\-s {gnu,lucid,arm}" -.TP -.B \-\-format={gnu,lucid,arm} -GNU -.B nm -can decode three different methods of mangling, used by different C++ -compilers. This option selects which method it uses: the one used by -the GNU compiler, the one used by the Lucid compiler, or the one -specified by the C++ Annotated Reference Manual. The default is the -GNU style. - -.TP -.B \-\-help -Print a summary of the options to -.B @PROGRAM@ -and exit. - -.TP -.B \-\-version -Print the version number of -.B @PROGRAM@ -and exit. - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.RB "`\|" binutils "\|'" -entry in -.B -info\c -\&; -.I -The GNU Binary Utilities\c -\&, Roland H.
