After you done that, which information on the functions do you extract and how do you do that? How do you store this information and what is it being used for? > So here are my two questions: 1.

The main executable will at least contain the .dynsym symbols, the .debug file will have the .symtab symbols in most cases. > 2.

Yes, that how it works, it merges the sections from the main executable and the separate debug file into one as it was before separating them. > Will it occur to some kind of precision error 3. > How fast is it for like 10 million tiny binaries? I think you will have to measure that yourself. Cheers, Mark
