 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      UilDumpSymbolTable - Dumps the contents of a named UIL symbol table to
      standard output

 SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]
      #include <uil/UilDef.h>

      void UilDumpSymbolTable(
      sym_entry_type *root_ptr);

 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      The UilDumpSymbolTable function dumps the contents of a UIL symbol
      table pointer to standard output.

      root_ptr  Specifies a pointer to the the symbol table root entry.
                This value can be taken from the parse_tree_root part of the
                Uil_compile_desc_type data structure returned by Uil.

      By following the link from the root entry, you can traverse the entire
      parse tree.  Symbol table entries are in the following format:

      hex.address symbol.type symbol.data prev.source.position
      source.position modification.record

      where:

      hex.address
                Specifies the hexadecimal address of this entry in the
                symbol table.

      symbol.type
                Specifies the type of this symbol table entry. Some possible
                types are root, module, value, procedure, and widget.

      symbol.data
                Specifies data for the symbol table entry. The data varies
                with the type of the entry. Often it contains pointers to
                other symbol table entries, or the actual data for the data
                type.

      prev.source.position
                Specifies the end point in the source code for the previous
                source item.

      source.position
                Specifies the range of positions in the source code for this
                symbol.

      The exact data structures for each symbol type are defined in the
      include file UilSymDef.h.  Note that this file is automatically
      included when an application includes the file UilDef.h.
