The files I posted before are for reading core files, not generating them. The
ObjectFile subclasses are what are responsible for creating a core file of a
specific type.
ObjectFileELF doesn't support creating core files as we can see by the
functions it registers with the plug-in manager:
ObjectFileELF::Initialize()
{
PluginManager::RegisterPlugin(GetPluginNameStatic(),
GetPluginDescriptionStatic(),
CreateInstance,
CreateMemoryInstance,
GetModuleSpecifications);
}
Note that ObjectFileMachO does (see the extra SaveCore function it registers):
void
ObjectFileMachO::Initialize()
{
PluginManager::RegisterPlugin (GetPluginNameStatic(),
GetPluginDescriptionStatic(),
CreateInstance,
CreateMemoryInstance,
GetModuleSpecifications,
SaveCore);
}
So it looks like this is not supported. If you feel like implementing this, let
me know as I did the ObjectFileMachO::SaveCore() implementation and am familiar
with what goes into it.
