The Symbols Tab
The Symbols Tab
The Symbols tab lets you load symbol files or define your own symbols.
Symbols are names for particular data values on a label.
Two kinds of symbols are available:
• Object File Symbols. These are symbols from your source code and
symbols generated by your compiler.
• User-Defined Symbols. These are symbols you create.
• “Symbols Selector Dialog” on page 161
• “Symbol File Formats” on page 163
• “General-Purpose ASCII (GPA) Symbol File Format” on page 164
Multiple files
You can load the same symbol file into several different analyzers, and
you can load multiple symbol files into one analyzer. Symbols from all
the files you load will appear together in the object file symbol selector
that you use to set up resource terms.
