92.Sh DESCRIPTION
93These functions retrieve specific line information associated with
94the line descriptor specified by argument
95.Ar ln ,
96and stores it in the location pointed to by argument
97.Ar ret .
98If argument
99.Ar err
100is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an
101error.
102.Pp
103Function
104.Fn dwarf_lineaddr
105stores the program address corresponding to the source line specified
106in argument
107.Ar ln
108into the location pointed to by argument
109.Ar ret .
110.Pp
111Function
112.Fn dwarf_linebeginstatement
113sets the location pointed to by argument
114.Ar ret
115to 1 if the source line specified by the line descriptor
116.Ar ln
117is the beginning of a statement, or to 0 otherwise.
118.Pp
119Function
120.Fn dwarf_lineblock
121sets the location pointed to by argument
122.Ar ret
123to 1 if the source line specified by the line descriptor
124.Ar ln
125is the beginning of a basic block, or to 0 otherwise.
126.Pp
127Function
128.Fn dwarf_lineendsequence
129sets the location pointed to by argument
130.Ar ret
131to 1 if the program address associated with the line descriptor
132.Ar ln
133is the address immediately following the end of a sequence of target
134machine instructions, or to 0 otherwise.
135.Pp
136Function
137.Fn dwarf_lineno
138stores the line number of the source line associated with the line
139descriptor
140.Ar ln
141into the location pointed to by argument
142.Ar ret .
143.Pp
144Function
145.Fn dwarf_lineoff
146stores the column number within a line associated with descriptor
147.Ar ln
148into the location pointed to by argument
149.Ar ret .
150The retrieved column numbers are 1-based, with the value -1 indicating
151that column number information was not available.
152.Pp
153Function
154.Fn dwarf_linesrc
155stores a pointer to a NUL-terminated string containing the source file
156name associated with line descriptor
157.Ar ln
158into the location pointed to by argument
159.Ar ret .
160The full path of the source file is returned if possible.
161The memory used for the source file name string is managed by the DWARF(3)
162library and should not be directly freed by application code.
163Instead, portable code should use
164.Xr dwarf_dealloc 3
165to indicate that the string should be freed.
166.Pp
167Function
168.Fn dwarf_line_srcfileno
169stores the index of the source file associated with the line descriptor
170.Ar ln
171in the location pointed to by argument
172.Ar ret .
173The returned value is 1-based index into the array of source file
174names returned by
175.Xr dwarf_srcfiles 3 .
176.Sh RETURN VALUES
177On success, these functions returns
178.Dv DW_DLV_OK .
179In case of an error, they return
180.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
181and set the argument
182.Ar err .
183.Sh ERRORS
184These functions may fail with the following errors:
185.Bl -tag -width ".Bq Er DW_DLE_LINE_FILE_NUM_BAD"
186.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
187Either of the arguments
188.Va ln
189or
190.Va ret
191was NULL.
192.It Bq Er DW_DLE_LINE_FILE_NUM_BAD
193The source file name associated with the line descriptor
194.Ar ln
195could not be retrieved by function
196.Fn dwarf_linesrc .
