NAME

lorder11 − find ordering relation for an LSI 11 object library

SYNOPSIS

lorder11 file ... 

DESCRIPTION

Argument file is the input consisting of one or more object files or library archives (see ar(1)). The standard output is a list of pairs of object file names, meaning that the first file of the pair refers to external identifiers defined in the second. The output may be processed by UNIX tsort to find an ordering of a library suitable for one-pass access by ld11(1).

This brash one-liner intends to build a new library from existing ‘.o’ files. 

ar cr library `lorder11 ∗.o | tsort`

The need for lorder11 is eliminated by ranlib11(1), which converts an ordered archive into a randomly accessed library.

FILES

∗symref, ∗symdef
nm11(1), sed(1), sort(1), join(1)

SEE ALSO

tsort(1), ld11(1), ar(1), ranlib11(1)

BUGS

The names of object files, in and out of libraries, must end with ‘.o’; nonsense results otherwise.
