CXXFilt
This is a Ruby gem for demangling C++ symbols. It works the same way as the c++filt
program from GNU binutils does. It even links with libiberty
and uses the same demangling routines as c++filt
.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'cxxfilt'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install cxxfilt
Usage
Get a list of the available demanglers:
2.4.1 :001 > require "cxxfilt"
=> true
2.4.1 :002 > CXXFilt::demanglers

Demangle a symbol with the auto
demangler:
2.4.1 :003 > CXXFilt::demangle("_Z1hic")
=> "h(int, char)"
2.4.1 :004 > CXXFilt::auto.demangle("_Z1hic")
=> "h(int, char)"
2.4.1 :005 > CXXFilt::demanglers[1].demangle("_Z1hic")
=> "h(int, char)"
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
