//! The generic ELF module, which gives access to ELF constants and other helper functions, which are independent of ELF bithood. Also defines an `Elf` struct which implements a unified parser that returns a wrapped `Elf64` or `Elf32` binary.
//!
//! To access the exact 32-bit or 64-bit versions, use [goblin::elf32::Header](header/header32/struct.Header.html)/[goblin::elf64::Header](header/header64/struct.Header.html), etc., for the various 32/64-bit structs.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```rust
//! use std::fs::File;
//!
//! pub fn read (bytes: &[u8]) {
//! match goblin::elf::Elf::parse(&bytes) {
//! Ok(binary) => {
//! let entry = binary.entry;
//! for ph in binary.program_headers {
//! if ph.p_type == goblin::elf::program_header::PT_LOAD {
//! // TODO: you should validate p_filesz before allocating.
//! let mut _buf = vec![0u8; ph.p_filesz as usize];
//! // read responsibly
//! }
//! }
//! },
//! Err(_) => ()
//! }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! This will properly access the underlying 32-bit or 64-bit binary automatically. Note that since
//! 32-bit binaries typically have shorter 32-bit values in some cases (specifically for addresses and pointer
//! values), these values are upcasted to u64/i64s when appropriate.
//!
//! See [goblin::elf::Elf](struct.Elf.html) for more information.
//!
//! You are still free to use the specific 32-bit or 64-bit versions by accessing them through `goblin::elf64`, etc., but you will have to parse and/or construct the various components yourself.
//! In other words, there is no unified 32/64-bit `Elf` struct.
//!
//! # Note
//! To use the automagic ELF datatype union parser, you _must_ enable/opt-in to the `elf64`, `elf32`, and
//! `endian_fd` features if you disable `default`.
