NAME
lorder
- list dependencies for object files
SYNOPSIS
file ...
DESCRIPTION
The
utility uses
nm(1)
to determine interdependencies in the list of object files
and library archives
specified on the command line.
The
utility outputs a list of file names where the first file contains a symbol
which is defined by the second file.
The output is normally used with
tsort(1)
when a library is created to determine the optimum ordering of the
object modules so that all references may be resolved in a single
pass of the loader.
When linking static binaries,
and
tsort(1)
can be used to properly order library archives automatically.
ENVIRONMENT
- NM
-
Path to the
nm(1)
binary, defaults to
``nm
''
- NMFLAGS
-
Flags to pass to
nm(1).
EXAMPLES
ar cr library.a `lorder ${OBJS} | tsort`
