4 The SBAddress class allows addresses to be relative to a section
5 that can move during runtime due to images (executables, shared
6 libraries, bundles, frameworks) being loaded at different
7 addresses than the addresses found in the object file that
8 represents them on disk. There are currently two types of addresses
9 for a section:
10 
11 * file addresses
12 * load addresses
13 
14 File addresses represents the virtual addresses that are in the 'on
15 disk' object files. These virtual addresses are converted to be
16 relative to unique sections scoped to the object file so that
17 when/if the addresses slide when the images are loaded/unloaded
18 in memory, we can easily track these changes without having to
19 update every object (compile unit ranges, line tables, function
20 address ranges, lexical block and inlined subroutine address
21 ranges, global and static variables) each time an image is loaded or
22 unloaded.
23 
24 Load addresses represents the virtual addresses where each section
25 ends up getting loaded at runtime. Before executing a program, it
26 is common for all of the load addresses to be unresolved. When a
27 DynamicLoader plug-in receives notification that shared libraries
28 have been loaded/unloaded, the load addresses of the main executable
29 and any images (shared libraries) will be  resolved/unresolved. When
30 this happens, breakpoints that are in one of these sections can be
31 set/cleared.
32 
33 See docstring of SBFunction for example usage of SBAddress."
