1This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and 2Instrumentation Library. 3 4It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing 5ABI-relevant artifacts. 6 7The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like 8types, variable, fonctions and declarations of a given library or 9program. For a given library or program this set of quantities is 10called an ABI corpus. 11 12This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to compare 13two ABI Corpora (apparently the plural of corpus is copora, heh, 14that's cool), provide detailed information about their differences, 15and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions about these 16differences. 17 18You are welcome to contribute to this project after reading the files 19CONTRIBUTING and COMMIT-LOG-GUIDELINES files in the source tree. 20 21Communicating with the maintainers of this project -- including 22sending patches to be include to the source code -- happens via email 23at libabigail@sourceware.org. 24
