/DUPLICATE Duplicate symbol?
If you combine any of the options listed in this table, LINK prompts you for
information in the sequence shown in the table. Note that the Duplicate symbol?
prompt is always last. This and Library search? are the only prompts that accept
more than one line as a response. For all the prompts, press
RETURN
to terminate
your response. Terminate your list of responses to the Library search? and Duplicate
symbol? prompts by typing an extra
RETURN
. Note that if the command lines are
in a command file and LINK encounters an end-of-file before all the prompting
information has been supplied, it displays the prompt messages on the terminal.
See the LINK utility chapter in the RT–11 System Utilities Manual for a more
detailed explanation of the RT–11 linker. See the Introduction to RT–11 for a tutorial
explanation of the linker.
Options
/ALLOCATE:size
Used with /EXECUTE or /MAP, reserves space on the device for the output
file. The size argument specifies the number of blocks of space to allocate. The
meaningful range for this value is from -1 to 65527. A value of -1 is a special
case that creates the largest file possible on the device.
/ALPHABETIZE
Lists in the load map your program’s global symbols in alphabetical order.
/[NO]BITMAP
/BITMAP creates a memory usage bitmap. This is the default setting.
/NOBITMAP suppresses the creation of a memory usage bitmap. This option
is useful if you are preparing your program for ROM storage and its code lies
between locations 360 and 377 inclusive. /NOBITMAP is also used in linking
many handlers. /BITMAP is the the default setting.
