NAME

size − prints the section size of an object file

SYNOPSIS

size [-o -d -x -A -B -V] [ file1 ... fileN ]

DESCRIPTION

The size command prints information about the text, rdata, data, sdata, bss and sbss sections of each file.  The file can be an object or an archive.  If you don’t specify a file, size uses a.out as the default. 

The −o, −x, and −d options print the size in octal, hexadecimal, and decimal, respectively. 

The −A option specifies AT&T System V-style output, which dumps the headers of each section. 

The −B option specifies Berkeley (4.3BSD)-style output, which is the default for DEC OSF/1 systems. This output prints size information for each section, regardless of whether the file exists, and prints the total in hexadecimal and decimal formats. 

The −V option prints the version of size that you’re using.
