Chapter 6  Maintaining Executable Libraries 

This chapter explains how to build and maintain executable libraries.
The chapter begins by describing executable libraries and comparing them
to relocatable libraries.  The remainder of the chapter provides a
detailed description of each of the executable library commands.  Since
the task of building and maintaining executable libraries resembles the
task of building and maintaining relocatable libraries, much of this
chapter parallels the information in chapter 5.

Figure 6-1  shows the input and output files that HP Link Editor uses
to create and maintain executable libraries.

[]
Figure 6-1. Creating an Executable Library File Executable libraries are composed of one or more executable modules that come from relocatable object modules created by compilers. The executable modules can also come from relocatable object modules in a relocatable library.
