elf_getbase(3ELF) ELF Library Functions elf_getbase(3ELF)NAMEelf_getbase - get the base offset for an object file
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lelf [ library ... ]
#include <libelf.h>
off_t elf_getbase(Elf *elf);
DESCRIPTION
The elf_getbase() function returns the file offset of the first byte of
the file or archive member associated with elf, if it is known or
obtainable, and −1 otherwise. A null elf is allowed, to simplify error
handling; the return value in this case is −1. The base offset of an
archive member is the beginning of the member's information, not the
beginning of the archive member header.
