About bfd (Binary File Descriptor)



Hello,all:

There is a subdirectory "bfd" in binutils source code.

If we add new file format in binutils, we must add new file like
cpu.-arm.c elf32-arm.c (ex:for ELF in arm).

There are also some files like bfd.c, bfd-in.h,archive.c,targets.c and so on.

My question is that:

How these file communicate with each other?

What is different between bfd and ELF?


                                                         thanks a lot!!
