Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe library only handles Itanium ABI mangling (GCC/Clang). It will not demangle MSVC or Rust symbols; it returns None for unrecognized inputs.

fix

Check that the symbol follows the Itanium ABI pattern (starts with _Z). Use different demanglers for other platforms.

affects: all

gotchaThe function returns None if demangling fails, not an exception. Do not assume success without checking the return value.

fix

Always check the result: if result is None, handle the error gracefully.

affects: all

deprecatedVersion 1.1 is older; the library is in maintenance mode with few updates. There are no known deprecations, but new features should not be expected.

fix

No immediate action needed; but for active development consider if alternatives (e.g., libcxx Demangle) are needed.

affects: 1.0, 1.1
