<!-- man begin DESCRIPTION ranlib -->
|
|
<p><span class="command">ranlib</span> generates an index to the contents of an archive and
|
|
stores it in the archive. The index lists each symbol defined by a
|
|
member of an archive that is a relocatable object file.
|
|
|
|
<p>You may use <span class="samp">nm -s</span> or <span class="samp">nm --print-armap</span> to list this index.
|
|
|
|
<p>An archive with such an index speeds up linking to the library and
|
|
allows routines in the library to call each other without regard to
|
|
their placement in the archive.
|
|
|
|
<p>The <span class="sc">gnu</span> <span class="command">ranlib</span> program is another form of <span class="sc">gnu</span> <span class="command">ar</span>; running
|
|
<span class="command">ranlib</span> is completely equivalent to executing <span class="samp">ar -s</span>.
|
|
See <a href="ar.html#ar">ar</a>.
