30 cornerstone of any application using BFD. Using BFD
31 consists of making references though the BFD and to data in the BFD.

371 Error reporting, Miscellaneous, typedef bfd, BFD front end
376 Most BFD functions return nonzero on success (check their
377 individual documentation for precise semantics). On an error,
378 they call <<bfd_set_error>> to set an error condition that callers
379 can check by calling <<bfd_get_error>>.
380 If that returns <<bfd_error_system_call>>, then check
383 The easiest way to report a BFD error to the user is to
387 Type <<bfd_error_type>>
389 The values returned by <<bfd_get_error>> are defined by the

593 %B file name from bfd. For archive components, prints archive too.
595 Note - because these two extra format specifiers require special handling
596 they are scanned for and processed in this function, before calling
597 vfprintf. This means that the *arguments* for these format specifiers
598 must be the first ones in the variable argument list, regardless of where
599 the specifiers appear in the format string. Thus for example calling
