Turning off Load Maps
example, if you built LARGFILE from MOD1, MOD2, MOD3, and MOD4, then altered
MOD1, enter the following commands to replace MOD1 in LARGFILE:
@ADD * FROM LARGFILE
@REPLACE MOD1
@BUILD LARGFILE!
Turning off Load Maps
Turning off load maps with the SELECT LIST * OFF command results in a substantial
performance increase. This is because half of the time spent generating a target file is
actually spent producing load maps. Turn off load maps only when you are certain that
the specified command sequence will produce exactly what you intend. If you are
interested in viewing the load maps only up to a specific point, you can press the Break
key during load map output instead.
Binding without Fixups
You can save additional time by using SELECT FIXUPS OFF on files that must be
processed a second time by Binder. SELECT FIXUPS OFF tells Binder not to fix code
and data references in the object file. To create an executable file, you must turn
SELECT FIXUPS to ON when binding the file the second time.
Syntax Conventions for Name Lists as
Command Elements
Many BIND commands allow lists of names for entry points, code blocks, or data
blocks to be used as part of the command line syntax.
