//! Support for reading Windows COFF files.
//!
//! Traits are used to abstract over the difference between COFF object files
//! and COFF bigobj files. The primary trait for this is [`CoffHeader`].
//!
//! ## High level API
//!
//! [`CoffFile`] implements the [`Object`](crate::read::Object) trait for
//! COFF files. [`CoffFile`] is parameterised by [`CoffHeader`].
//! The default parameter allows reading regular COFF object files,
//! while the type alias [`CoffBigFile`] allows reading COFF bigobj files.
//!
//! [`ImportFile`] allows reading COFF short imports that are used in import
//! libraries. Currently these are not integrated with the unified read API.
//!
//! ## Low level API
//!
//! The [`CoffHeader`] trait can be directly used to parse both COFF
//! object files (which start with [`pe::ImageFileHeader`]) and COFF bigobj
//! files (which start with [`pe::AnonObjectHeaderBigobj`]).
//!
//! ### Example for low level API
//! ```no_run
//! use object::pe;
//! use object::read::coff::{CoffHeader, ImageSymbol as _};
//! use std::error::Error;
//! use std::fs;
//!
//! /// Reads a file and displays the name of each section and symbol.
//! fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
//! # #[cfg(feature = "std")] {
//! let data = fs::read("path/to/binary")?;
//! let mut offset = 0;
//! let header = pe::ImageFileHeader::parse(&*data, &mut offset)?;
//! let sections = header.sections(&*data, offset)?;
//! let symbols = header.symbols(&*data)?;
//! for section in sections.iter() {
//! println!("{}", String::from_utf8_lossy(section.name(symbols.strings())?));
//! }
//! for (_index, symbol) in symbols.iter() {
//! println!("{}", String::from_utf8_lossy(symbol.name(symbols.strings())?));
//! }
//! # }
//! Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
