	Symbol table - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In computer science, a symbol table is a data structure used by a language translator such as a compiler or interpreter, where each symbol in a program's source code is associated with information such as location, type and scope level.
		A hash table implementation of a symbol table is common and the table is usually maintained throughout all phases of translation.
		A symbol table can be a transient structure used only during a language translation process and then discarded, or it can be embedded in the output of that process for later exploitation, for example, during an interactive debugging session, or as a resource for formatting a diagnostic report during or after execution of a program.

	Symbol Table Format (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Symbol Table Format =================== Each time the assembler encounters a stab directive, it puts each field of the stab into a corresponding field in a symbol table entry of its output file.
		Symbol table entries with `n_type' field values greater than 0x1f originated as stabs generated by the compiler (with one random exception).
		The other entries were placed in the symbol table of the executable by the assembler or the linker.

	CS 434 Lecture Notes -- Symbol Tables vs. Symbol Table Organization
		The standard approach to explaining symbol table organization, however, adds additional complexity by failing to properly distinguish the role of the scanner in building the symbol table from that of the semantic analysis routines in completing it.
		The hash table (or whatever else is used) is simply a mechanism that enables the scanner to associate symbol table entries with the character string form of identifiers it processes.
		In the "symbol table is a hash table" view of a compiler, detecting undeclared and multiply declared identifiers becomes a task split between the scanner, parser and symbol table routines.

	Symbol
		The symbol identifiers and their values are maintained in a table by a server process.
		Symbol identifiers are case insensitive, meaning you can enter the letters in uppercase, lowercase, or mixed case.
		When you use Symbol to change a current symbol or create a new one, the change to the symbol table becomes immediately visible to all GCG processes running in the context of the current session.

	Symbol Table Management
		The symbol table is accessed by most phases of a compiler, beginning within the lexical analysis scanning.
		The symbol table carries the collected information about each named object in the program to other phases of the compiler.
		As soon as a named token is found, depending on the token type, a call to the symbol table routines is made.

	Symbol Table Library
		A structure is defined in a separate symbol table and variables of that type may be handled by passing a smart pointer with the table fork pointing to the symbol table and the object fork pointing to a table.
		Overlays Allow one symbol table to be placed on top of another in such a way that the result is the combination of two tables with one overiding the other.
		The first is a pointer to the symbol table and the second is a pointer to the object it describes.

	STABS - Symbol information in symbol tables (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Symbol table entries with n_type fields containing a value greater or equal to 0x20 originated as stabs generated by the compiler (with one random exception).
		Those with n_type values less than 0x20 were placed in the symbol table of the executable by the assembler or the linker.
		You can see the transformations made on stab data by the assembler and linker by examining the symbol table after each pass of the build, first the assemble and then the link.

	DCE 1.1: Authentication and Security Services - Symbol Mapping Table
		The table below is a "symbol mapping table", correlating symbols employed in this specification with symbols occurring in the source code of the standard OSF reference implementation of DCE.
		The symbols occurring in the reference implementation are familiar to most DCE developers, but they were not chosen with an English-language specification document (such as this specification) in mind.
		This table is included solely as an aid to developers who desire to compare their implementation with this specification-it does not impose any restrictions on conforming implementations.

		An assembler employs several types of symbol tables, some of which are static (e.g., the op code table) and some of which are created dynamically as source code is processed (e.g., the symbol table of statement labels).
		Tables to be dynamically created usually have an initial table size of 0, signifying an empty table.
		Other symbol table strategies (such as a hash table) require a different table organization than the one being employed, and so do not have to be considered.

	Symbol Table Assignment
		A symbol table allows its client to insert (put) new bindings, to retrieve (get) the values of bindings with specified keys, and to remove bindings with specified keys.
		Symbol tables are used often in programming systems; compilers and assemblers use them extensively.
		Hash tables are described in Section 2.9 of The Practice of Programming, Chapter 8 of C Interfaces and Implementations (Hanson), and Chapter 14 of Algorithms in C, Parts 1-4 (Sedgewick).

	Java Symbol Table Design Issues
		The function symbol table parent pointer points to the next scope "upward" in the hierarchy (either the global symbol table, or in the case of Pascal, an enclosing procedure or function).
		The symbol table must also help the compiler resolve the error cases where the same kind of symbol (e.g., a method) is declared more than once in a given scope.
		The symbol table and the semantic analysis code that checks the Java AST returned by the parser must be able to resolve whether a symbol definition is semantically correct.

		symtab.doc 09 Aug 96; 13 Jul 99 Conventions for Use of Symbol Table This document describes the conventions that should be followed in using the symbol table routines in the file symtab.c.
		Each field is a symbol table record (but is not "inserted" in the symbol table, so it is only visible when starting from the record entry).
		If the result that is to be returned for a declaration construct is a symbol table pointer, put that pointer into the symtype field of a token and return the token as the value.

		In this regard, one can view the symbol table as an associative container (or map) of key-value pairs where the keys are strings.
		Note that it is invalid to add the same symbol multiple times to a symbol table, though you may modify the value associated with a symbol artibrarily many times.
		When the symbol table successfully matches something from the input, the data associated with the matching entry in the symbol table is reported to the semantic action.

	Symbol Table
		External C symbols have the same names in C and object files' symbol tables.
		The symbol is associated with a data object, such as a variable, an array, and so on.
		To make these files' symbols more useful for the dynamic linker, the section offset (file interpretation) gives way to a virtual address (memory interpretation) for which the section number is irrelevant.

	7.5 Other Symbol Table Techniques (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Symbol table information or pointers to symbol table information can be attached to the nodes of the parse tree or abstract syntax tree.
		Thus the symbol table structures such as a stack, which can discard the table information for nested procedures as soon as they are processed, are useful.
		Compilers, and hence the symbol table, are usually written in a high-level language.

	stab(5) - symbol table types
		This allows one to specify a double-quote delimited name, a symbol type, one char and one short of information about the symbol, and an unsigned long (usually an address).

		N_value fields of symbols not in any segment are unchanged by the linker.

	Lisp programming assignment
		A symbol table (also called an association list or a state vector or an environment) is a mechanism for keeping track of the attributes of symbols (also called identifiers or variables).
		For example, a compiler uses a symbol table to keep track of type information, obtained when a declaration is parsed, in order to check the types of subsequent expressions and to generate efficient code.
		Now our symbol table must be smarter; it must somehow keep track of versions of symbols for each block in the program in which they are declared.

		A symbol table is an instance of class SymTab whose find function returns a pointer to the item in which its input symbol is stored.
		The function insert performs the same function as find except that it always returns a pointer to the item instance for the symbol because it creates a new instance of item for a symbol that is not stored in the table, and then stores it in the table before returning.
		The hash table itself is implemented as an array of 149 linked-lists which is "hidden" from clients of SymTab.

		Some symbols may have a numeric overlay character 0-9 or A-Z. These are shown on the F1-S display with the numeral "3" overlayed.
		For example, "/C" is a CANOE in the PRIMARY table which can be referred to as PC in the XYZ format and the "\C" ALTERNATE table symbol is for Coast Guard which could also be referred to in the GPSxyz format as AC.
		To embed a symbol in a map, simply make the first four characters of the label be a # followed by the dual symbol character, followed by a hex number from 1 to F that indicates the color for the symbol.

		The class itself contains a method find which is a classical symbol table (dictionary): It is called with the name of the symbol as a parameter and either returns the existing sym_c-object with this name or constructs a new object (if there was no symbol with this name before).
		The symbol table is implemented as a hash table with an "external" linked list of symbols for every hash value.
		However, for the user it might be important that the object is printed on output as it was used in his or her program.
