Subject: identify static fields with the python api
Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2015 08:52:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CY1PR0501MB1178E192D2DEE7BFD26BB7B995000@CY1PR0501MB1178.namprd05.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

I trying to identify the static fields in a struct/class using the Python A= PI, but I don't see anything in the API that will flag them.

Can get everything else I need from the field as shown below

    for field in sometype.fields():
        n =3D field.name
        t =3D field.type
        s =3D t.sizeof

To work around the issue I've captured the output from "ptype" with a gdb.e= xecute and checked for the static fields there. Messy (and surprisingly slo= w for bigish classes) but it does seem to work.

Is there any other way to do this?

Paul
