Recovery. The -instance_data option is a speical option that should only be used
when you know why you are using it. If you need to use it, decide which value you
need to specify, and spell it correctly. Case doesn’t matter, but other than that it must
be exactly as shown in the manual.
Cause. You gave the -change option, but the file that you specified for this option is
not any kind of valid TNS/E object file.
Effect. Fatal error (eld immediately stops without creating an output file).
Recovery. Use the correct object file.
Cause. You gave the -local_libname option more than once on the command line,
and you specified a different filename parameter for it each time. You can give this
option more than once, but only if you specify the same filename each time.
Effect. Error (The linker cannot do what was requested of it and will eventually stop,
but may continue for the purpose of detecting additional errors before stopping).
Recovery. The -local_libname option tells the name of a user library that eld will
use during this link to fix up references from the program that it is creating. There can
only be one user library. If you have a user library, specify its name on the command
line, and no other name. If you use this option to specify the name more than once, it
must be written exactly the same way each time.
Cause. You gave the -import_lib, the -import_lib stripped, or the -make_import_lib
option more than once on the command line. Each of these options takes a filename
as a parameter, and you specified different names each time that option was used.
You can give each of these options more than once, but only if you specify the same
filename each time for that option.
Effect. Error (The linker cannot do what was requested of it and will eventually stop,
but may continue for the purpose of detecting additional errors before stopping).
Recovery. These are three different options that tell eld to create an import library,
and the parameter tells the name of that import library. Decide what name you want to
give the import library, and specify just that name on the command line.
1343 <filename> is neither a linkfile, DLL, or program.
1345 Multiple specifications of the -local_libname option
with different filenames.
1346 Multiple specifications of the <option name> option with
different filenames.
