don’t understand the purpose of the -t option, read the documentation or contact HP
for more detailed advice. Perhaps you intended to make some code section come out
at a particular location, but there is no direct way to do that.
Cause. You used the -d option, which specifies the starting address of the data
segment of the program or DLL being built. It was rounded up to a multiple of 64K
bytes (or, 128K bytes if you are building an implicit DLL).
Effect. Warning (eld produces an output file, but it might not be what you intended).
Recovery. The starting address of the data segment of a pjrogram or DLL is required
to have the indicated alignment. No action is required if you understand that and are
satisfied with the rounding, although it would be cleaner if you specified a number with
the right alignment in the first place. More likely, there was no reason for you to use
this option in the first place. If this doesn’t make sense to you, because you don’t
understand the purpose of the -d option, read the documentation or contact HP for
more detailed advice. Perhaps you intended to make some data section come out at a
particular location, but there is no direct way to do that.
Cause. You used the -ansistreams option, which affects how the program that you are
building will do its I/O, but the file that you have told eld to create is not a program.
Effect. Fatal error (eld immediately stops without creating an output file).
Recovery. If your intention is to create a program, specify that correctly. For example,
don’t specify the
-dll, -shared, or -ul option, which means that you are telling eld
to build a DLL, rather than a program. And don’t specify the -r option, which tells eld
that you are building another object file that can be used as input to eld, rather than a
program. Or, if you don’t intend to create a program, then don’t specify the -
ansistreams option.
Cause. You used the -nostdfiles option, which affects how the program that you are
building will do its I/O, but the file that you have told eld to create is not a program.
Effect. Fatal error (eld immediately stops without creating an output file).
Recovery. If your intention is to create a program, specify that correctly. For example,
don’t specify the
-dll, -shared, or -ul option, which means that you are telling eld
