I've done some study about BFD(binary file descriptor) library and
have following doubts:

If I inlcude libbfd.a in my final executable can I use this executable
to read it's own symbol table, by reading libbfd.a? Is it possible? Is
there any other(/better) way to do this?

What is your C++ *language* question, again?

I am not sure what the "binary file descriptor" is, but from the word
"file" I can imagine that the first newsgroup you should try is the one
that deals with your OS. Since you didn't say what your OS is, I'll
make a guess that ti's Linux, so try 'comp.os.linux.development.apps'.
