LORDER(CP)               XENIX System V                LORDER(CP)



     Name
          lorder - Finds ordering relation for an object library.

     Syntax
          lorder file ...

     Description
          lorder creates an ordered listing of object filenames,
          showing which files depend on variables declared in other
          files.  The file is one or more object or library archive
          files (see ar(CP)).  The standard output is a list of pairs
          of object filenames.  The first file of the pair refers to
          external identifiers defined in the second.  The output may
          be processed by tsort(CP) to find an ordering of a library
          suitable for one-pass access by ld(CP).

     Example
          The following command builds a new library from existing .o
          files:

               ar cr library `lorder *.o | tsort`

     Files
          *symref, *symdef    Temp files

     See Also
          ar(CP), ld(CP), tsort(CP)

     Notes
          Object files whose names do not end with .o, even when
          contained in library archives, are overlooked.  Their global
          symbols and references are attributed to some other file.
