Usage: ar65 <operation> lib file|module ...
|
||
|
Operation is one of:
|
||
|
a Add modules
|
||
|
d Delete modules
|
||
|
l List library contents
|
||
|
x Extract modules
|
||
|
V Print the archiver version

<P>You may add modules to a library using the `a' command. If the library
|
||
|
does not exist, it is created (and a warning message is printed which you
|
||
|
may ignore if creation of the library was your intention). You may
|
||
|
specify any number of modules on the command line following the library.</P>
|
||
|
<P>If a module with the same name exists in the library, it is replaced by
|
||
|
the new one. The archiver prints a warning, if the module in the library
|
||
|
has a newer timestamp than the one to add.</P>
|
||
|
<P>Here's an example:</P>

|

|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>This will add two modules to the library `mysubs.lib' creating the
|
||
|
library if necessary. If the library contains modules named sub1.o or
|
||
|
sub2.o, they are replaced by the new ones.</P>
|
||
|
<P>Modules names in the library are stored without the path, so, using</P>

|
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>will add two modules named `sub1.o' and `sub2.o' to the library.</P>
|
||
|
<P>Deleting modules from a library is done with the `d' command. You may not
|
||
|
give a path when naming the modules.</P>
|
||
|
<P>Example:</P>
|
||
|
<P>
|
||
|
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>

|
<PRE>
|

|
ar65 d mysubs.lib sub1.o
|
||
|
</PRE>
|
||
|
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>This will delete the module named `sub1.o' from the library, printing an
|
||
|
error if the library does not contain that module.</P>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>The `l' command prints a list of all modules in the library. Any module
|
||
|
names on the command line are ignored.</P>
|
||
|
<P>Example:</P>
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>Using the `x' command, you may extract modules from the library. The
|
||
|
modules named on the command line are extracted from the library and put
|
||
|
into the current directory.</P>
|
||
|
<P>Note: Because of the indexing done by the archiver, the modules may have
|
||
|
a changed binary layout, that is, a binary compare with the old module
|
||
|
(before importing it into the library) may yield differences. The
|
||
|
extracted modules are accepted by the linker and archiver, however, so
|
||
|
this is not a problem.</P>
|
||
|
<P>Example for extracting a module from the library:</P>

|

<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
|

</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>The `V' command prints the version number of the assembler. If you send
|
||
|
any suggestions or bugfixes, please include your version number.</P>
|
||
|
<P>In addition to these operations, the archiver will check for, and warn
|
||
|
about duplicate external symbols in the library, every time when an
|
||
|
operation does update the library. This is only a warning, the linker
|
||
|
will ignore one of the duplicate symbols (which one is unspecified).</P>
