Checks binary compatibility of two versions of a C/C++ shared library

Given the header files and shared objects corresponding to two different shared library versions, and a simple description of each of the shared libraries in XML format, abi-compliance-checker searches for the following kinds of binary compatibility problems

–added/withdrawn interfaces functions, global variables –changes to constants –problems in data types –classes added/withdrawn virtual functions changes in layout of virtual table, virtual function positions, virtual function redefinitions –structural data types added/withdrawn members changes in layout of type structure, changes in members, size changes –enumerations member value changes –interface problems –parameter and return type changes –incorrect symbol versions

The checker then generates a report that assesses the risks of any potential problems detected.
